Hey smart guy, do you give charity to the people who are suffering or to ones who are not?

Who is suffering most here?
 
I think it's to alleviate fears that the environment will be forever ruined. While a catastrophe on many fronts, this isn't the worst thing the world has ever seen.
 
Yes, which is why he estimated high, so even with high estimates, it's still smaller than other spills.
 
And right now those suffering are on the bill of BP. The clean up and civil cases (both for murder it seems, and for damage to industry) all are on the bill of BP.

What will raising money do? They have the money right now.
 
Look at these faggots trying to downplay this BP spill.. What the graph doesn't mention is how the IXTOC didn't affect the united states like this spill will..

I mean, this rig is 50 miles off shore of our coast. What was IXTOC? Way on the bottom left of the GOF? But its ok, keep justifying that this really isn't a big deal. Your tax dollars will be used heavily on rebuilding our marshes in the next 10 years
 
You mean those previous spills that weren't bigger than the state of Delaware?





Heck, it may be bigger than Delaware and Maryland combined.
 
wait until it starts damaging the florida keys and all of the rich old people raise hell
 
Why? They made me shit loads of money before, and with a single call, I dumped it.

And let's face it, you REALLY don't give a tinkers damn about the dead oil workers, hell, most of them were probably redneck Republican types you wouldn't associate with anyways.
 
Haven't gotten back to Rush to update his graph now we know the 15,000 barrel number is BS and it's day 50?
 
don't pass off your "greed is good" whatever it takes gordon gekko bullshit on me.
 
In the end, Ixtoc spewed a record 140 million gallons of oil. Massive slicks reached the northern Mexican Gulf coast and Texas, where it would eventually coat almost 170 miles (275 kilometers) of U.S. beaches.
 
yup the technology they develop but in BPs case they decided to go cheap on since the better tech (they developed) was too expensive
