All because they couldn’t get paid…

Well…I’m sure you’ve heard about the huge pipeline serving the east coast that went down last week and the hand wringing that went along with it since it was supposed to be cyber terrorism…yeah, not so much…the truth came out yesterday that the pipeline company shut the line down since their accounting system was hacked and they couldn’t be sure to be PAID correctly…yep…they caused the deaths of at least two panicked people who filled their cars with gas cans and cost consumers across the country a billion dollars in higher gas prices all because these idiots couldn’t figure out how to get paid when their automated systems stopped working…there was never anything wrong with the pipeline at all….and, of course, they couldn’t tell the truth since it was not sexy to have their accounting system hacked but it was to have a huge pipeline that supplies most of the gasoline for the east coast hacked and shut down. Of course, no one is going to be held responsible for these lies or for terrorizing half of the country…that’s just not how it works anymore…lying all of the time has become a virtue for half of the country and infests everything that happens….I’m really starting to hate these kind of people….I’m sure they could have asked their customers for their data on how much fuel was delivered since their accounting systems weren’t hacked but I guess blaming a screw up by the company on terrorists makes them feel better…and these days, that’s all that counts…geez…
