Bob Dudley New BP Point Man For Gulf Oil Spill

Someone on Huf fingtonpost just said oil companies will make money off this (the longer it goes on) because oil prices will rise.

=====================================



Oil companies will make money off of this in more ways than that.



Not long ago, someone tried to argue that BP has a vested interest in getting that well capped ASAP as they are liable for the environmental damage that will be caused.



At a certain point, when enough oil and gas has gushed, that becomes moot.



I facetiously argued that BP doesn't really have a vested interest in getting it done ASAP. Aside from the cap of $75 million & a reasonable expectation of a favorable outcome from any judgments against them in US courts (the judiciary branch of government stacked with corporate wh.ore.s that let corporations game the system to escape justice), an argument can be made that by destroying the entire region ecologically, BP & all pro-drilling interested parties (politicians included) can & will push for an increase in offshore drilling increase, "since it's all ruined anyway".”
