Yep, and anyone who buys the line that those wells are only temporary is smoking something.
They may call the 'temporary relief wells', but I would bet the house that they will be PERMANENTLY temporary.
No way BP is going to walk away from what is conservatively estimated as the second largest oil reserve in the world.
The logic will be that they must pump oil to relieve pressure. And might as well put the oil to use right?
And why should they? Obama won't be around for long, and the new President will (hopefully) overturn all of the anti-American crap his Regime did.
They've worked their butts off...they deserve every drop.
The weird part is that the govt is going to fine them based on every drop that got loose....except the govt gave "0" help.
I still think "sabotage" and the two guys in the mudroom that died..they were the martyrs.
add to that-
The moratorium on all OTHER new offshore drilling.
BP will be the only one tapping into that oil!
In other words, ultimately, they will be REWARDED for this major screw-up!
And taxpayers will probably pay for the clean-up!
