No End in Sight for the Corruption of Big Oil
Big Oil companies soulless practices are as vast as time and the universe itself, dwelling in destruction and deceit.
The explosion on Deepwater Horizon that killed 11 BP employees in April 2010 is just a small fraction of the evils of Big Oil.
From its infancy in the late 1800s and early 1900s, oil companies have been driven primarily on immorality, greed, corruption and most likely murder. Gasoline fueled engines have been obsolete since the 1890s, however big business diminished pollution free and economically sagacious motors for the almighty buck.
In my mind Rudolf Diesel was murdered in 1913. In 1893 Diesel invented an engine that ran off peanut oil. His body was found in the ocean in 1913, a death described as a mystery then and now. Apparently he fell off a ship while sailing across the English Channel. Shortly after his death, the oil companies denied his engine ever ran off peanut oil and that diesel fuel was the only thing that would run his engine. Ninety years later, Diesel was publicly proven right. For more detailed information watch the documentary "GasHole" or check out the wed site;

"GasHole" released in 2008 talked about another potential murder by a major oil company. Tom Ogle a mechanic in the 70s invented a car engine that got 100 mpg according to a 1977 El Paso Times article on the following web site; http://elpasotimes.typepad.com/morgue/2008/04/200-miles-on-tw.html
Ogle had offers from major oil gurus to buy his patent; he declined and sold his patent in 1978 to a small company in Seattle, Advanced Fuel Systems Inc. Six months later the Securities Exchange Commission slapped an injunction on the Seattle firm claiming fraud provisions of federal securities laws, this according the above web page.
Ogle was found dead, news sources claiming suicide by a drug and alcohol over dose while other sources from "GasHole" suggested murder by a well known oil company.
"His (Ogle) invention was sophisticated enough to get him dead," Ernest Pearce a retired mechanic said in "GasHole."
Ogles widow Monica refused to talk to the film makers of "GasHole," because she was freighted to talk about his story with them.
Solar powered vehicles, biodiesel and electric cars are not being used effectively because Big Oil has the power and money to hinder sound ideas from the general public.
In "GasHole" retired shell scientist David Blackmore said that Shell scientist had the technology for automobiles to achieve 1000 mpg in the 70s.
The book "Fuel Economy of the Gasoline Engine" written in the 40s claims Shell had the technology for cars to get a 149 mpg in 1947. "GasHole" claims the book is now out of print and has disappeared from the library of congress. I found some copies of the book on Amazon.com; new ones were going for more than $1700. Used copies were more than $170.
The fatal blunder of BP which killed 11 people could have easily been averted had BP spent less than $60,000 on upgrades for Deepwater Horizon. "Drowning in Oil; BP and the Reckless pursuit of Profit," a book written by Loren C. Steffy illustrates how high rollers at BP spent extremly large amounts of money on cocaine and hookers instead of Deepwater Horizon upgrades which was still using 50s technology.
In the second quarter of 2011 BP profited 5.6 billion dollars according to the article "Big Oil Companies Post Huge Profits on High Gas Prices;" http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/07/29/big-oil-profits_n_913452.html. For those of you who don't know, a quarter is three months in the business world.
There will be a time when gasoline engines become extinct, maybe even in this life time, but dollar signs and insanely large political campaign contributions will continue to rule over solar, electric and biodiesel for decades to come.
