Just goes to show that it's virtually impossible to do the right thing without opening yourself up to being taken advantage of.

BP isn't doing the right thing. The gulf coast is still covered in oil, the Texas City refinery is still a death trap. BP needs to change and get their act together

Not in general, no. I was referring ONLY to the compensation fund.

Don't worry, all they need is a good hurricane to clean up the gulf shore.

What, you mean to tell us that you didn't file your claim already?

Quote:
Lauer and the NOAA official who tagged along, Scott Zengel, said a cleanup plan was being developed, though they gave few details. They also couldn't explain why there is no mechanism in place to keep the situation from getting worse nearly six months after the flow of oil to the sea was stopped.


No plan? No explanations? I thought government agencies were supposed to have all of the answers for these things?

Quote:
A Coast Guard spokesman, Lionel Bryant, said rushing to clean oil from fragile areas can cause more harm than good. He also pointed out that the treatment plan being developed must be approved by federal, state and local officials.

Yep, regulations do wonders for getting things done.
