Evolution yea right, and what safe guards do they have in place to protect mother earth? Shoot if they cant have a back up valve to shut off oil from spewing in to the ocean what makes us think they have safe guards to protect the environment?

It's nice to know that the ducks I eat could have passed through this toxic nightmare.
