I know I feel better and wealthier now.
How much has each taxpayer received from that deal? When a company has to pay a huge fine to the government, as BP paid $20 billion after the Gulf oil spill, why does the government get to keep that money? Why shouldn’t it have been prorated to the Gulf states affected by the spill, according to the damages each suffered?
All fines levied (extorted) from businesses should be paid to the people affected, not dumped into the federal coffers to be blown by agencies like the GOA. It’s our money!!!
I doubt it.
Plus, small time shareholders still got hosed.
