To me it looks like the fines are mearly gestures to appease the masses. Why? Because as soon as this goes down the price of gas will take a jump which will undoubtedly repay the oil companies for this disaster.
Why not freeze the price of gas and reduce it every week this continues? Make the companies take real loses that cannot be recovered in the next quarter? Or make part of their fine an agreement to invest agressively into alternative fuels to reduce our exposure to these mistakes.
Seems like our gov has no teeth rearding the oil business, I say push the auto manufacturers to create alternative energy vehicles and pass the bill for R&D directly to the oil companies as a result.
Ahhh to dream ...
