perhaps it is a flaw to think it is more important that the leak be stopped and the gulf cleaned up and that regulation be tightened in order to both make another such disaster less likely and to enable an actually coherent response to problems when they do occur than to cheer for how bp manoevers to save its corporate person ass.
and perhaps it is a flaw to see in the relation between aspects of the petro-capitalist system more a symbiotic matter (state and corporations co-operating all too much) than a private-vs-public thing as you do. perhaps it is a flaw in approach to be interested in actual social systems and how they work rather than being content with looking at mirror images of (conservative) ideological constructs.
but they're flaws i'm fine with.
