Beyond Petroleum

Isn't it ironic an oil corporation can market itself as "beyond petroleum"?
It's almost a quaint way of selling itself. Well for most of us consumers we already know BP is or was British Petroleum and their marketing and advertising geniuses thought up the catchy new way to define itself.

With the Alaskan pipeline being shutdown until who knows when, I wonder how soon America will begin looking more like Communist China where so many working class citizens are forced to drive smaller cars or worse having to ride a bicycle to work.
