The problem of course is that any billion $ fine that BP pays we pay when we buy fuel and oil. Fortunatly for many of us on this site we pay disproportionately less. Let me tell you a storey about years of legal rangeling about billion $ fines which take up enough time for BP to earn all the money they need for the original fines and the legal costs... how long will that take? 2 years or 5 years? you be the judge...
I am always amused by people who complain about the price of fuel and want the government to step in to keep the price down so they can keep driving there gas guzzeling vehicle. For my part; like so many of you, desided long ago to reduce my need for the stuff. Does that make me a tree huger, an economist, or just an other ecomodder...?
