As I understand things, BP is a greedy corporation displaying the worst of the capitalist system. Their only concern is profit, profit and more profit. The result is careless and shoddy work that resulted in the worst oil spill in the US.
BP is not trying to stop the oil spill even though it is costing the company millions of dollars every hour the oil flows. The cleanup costs could be staggering and the US Government led lawsuits will likely bankrupt the company. The Obama Administration has decreed all deep water drilling should stop, based on fabricated evidence, and BP has been ordered to pay for those unemployed workers too.
Ok, let me try again. We need to stop importing oil now. For national security reasons. We cannot drill for oil on land, in the Dakotas, in Alaska, off shore.
We need lighter, more fuel efficient cars. The only way to make cars lighter is to use less metal and more plastic.
Plastic is made from oil.
Natural gas is a perfect alternate fuel for automobiles. We cannot drill for it either.
I guess we will have to take the bus. Except for the people who live in rural areas and small towns.
Never mind, I can't make sense of the progressive position.

Actually, if it weren't for the Jones Act, BP could have done a lot more than they've done.
Damn government gets in the way again.
Actually, that's about as much sense as can be extracted from any Prog position, because - like most of the rest of their touchy-feely-emo/leftist/Marxist bullshit/alleged "reasoning", it doesn't make any fuckin' sense.
