So, Let me see if I understand this…Our government found a fertilizer plant that was on fire, basically in the middle on nowhere Texas, and then blasted it with a missile…And this would prove what? …Makes sense to me… People are Idiots!

^ Thats just silly…
Obviously they launched a missle with a delayed explosion time. It hit something to start the fire and then eventually went boom…

The entire plant had $1 Million liability coverage
> Roberts said he expects the plant’s owner to ask a judge to divide the $1 million in insurance money among the plaintiffs, several of whom he represents, and then file for bankruptcy.

Quite the contrary. This is the bullshit that happens with deregulation. This is why it’s good to have a central sanctioning body for this type of shit.
It’s all rainbows and ponies when you have a big business providing jobs in your city until it levels your whole shit, and can’t afford to rebuild your house because a group of fuckgoofs thinks government is the devil.

Yup. A lot of people seem to forget that most of their hated, business-killing regulation was put in place for a _very, very good fucking reason._
