Congressman Ron Paul spoke to CNBC today about how he feels President Obama is taking too much of the blame for the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
0:30 Its unfair to blame Obama for an oil company accident, similar to blaming Bush for everything in terms of Katrina; this creates a culture where government is responsible for everything.
2:05 If you had proper property rights instead of government control, this situation would have been improved.
2:50 There shouldn't be any limits on the legal liabilities for BP.
4:10 Don't end deepwater drilling, but make it more costly, make the conditions much different.
