As much as we need to drill, I’m not so sure as to why there should be a liability cap. The argument seems to be that without it only really big companies will be involved, but isn’t that the nature of some things? I mean I can’t just get some buddies together and start a space exploration company, or mass producing cars. I know we need the energy, and better here than funding terrorists, but I don’t care for uninsured drivers, why should an oil company get a break?
That headline made me chuckle...but shouldn’t that be “You Bet Your SWEET BP”?
