BP could have fixed this if they were willing to spend billions of dollars. They were not.
Which is cheaper for BP?
-One billion into a swiss bank account for Obama in return for his commitment that the federal govt will be on the hook to clean up the gulf?
-BP cleans up the gulf?
Just curious as to how, technologically, they could have already had this fixed. I assume it could be done with "stuff" already on hand and not something that would take awhile to build.
So they want the American taxpayers to pay it, instead. Not to mention everyone whose livelihood depends on the Gulf. Let’s leave the cost of the destroyed environment out of it, because that can’t be reckoned monetarily.
