The clean-up workers do not know what the toxins they are inhaling are doing to their bodies, else they wouldn´t do it. How many of the clean-up workers that were employed after the Exxon Valdez spill are still with us ?
Where is all this invisible toxic stuff coming from?

Crude oil is extremely toxic. Anybody around crude for a long period of time is going to become ill. It's as simple as that. Keep trying, though, it's hilarious.
And for the record, the majority of the workers who cleaned up Exxon are still around, though there were a sizable chunk of them that did get ill, and a smaller number that died. Might want to do some research before making your own speculations, or parroting a couple of random comments you might have seen.

Also, fantastic little article on a lot of to do with BP, capitalism, government, and socialism:
BP said Tuesday that it plans to cut its U.S. tax bill by $9.9 billion, or about half the amount pledged to aid victims of the disaster, by deducting costs related to the oil spill.
I have a friend who is in the gulf helping with the cleanup. I asked him about the restriction of reporters to the affected area, and his response was that it was because BP had been receiving bomb threats. Whether that is true or a cover story I don't know. He put up pics of layers of oil buried beneath sand on FB recently. Whether it happened naturally or was placed there I don't know.
