sure they are, just like the ceo's of a company is responsible in the end. Even if the CEO didn't know ... it's his head that rolls
There may be fault all around, all the players had a part in it, but its the responsibility of bp to make sure all operations are up to snuff.
but this was an accident and blame doesnt clean anything up. only money will clean some of it up...
Let bp sue halliburton and transocean and the oil after its cleaned up to recoup any costs they want...
So what you're saying is if you use something and it breaks, whether you're responsible for it breaking or not, you're always responsible for it breaking?
I'm not saying BP isn't responsible; I'm advocating for a fair and equal distribution of blame and cleanup responsibility.
well thats not exactly what i said but:
yes, if you rent a lawnmower and accidentally cut off your neighbors foot...YOU are responsible. EVEN if there was a defect in the unit... you are gonna get sued.. you are gonna pay.. after that.. you can sue Toro to get reimbursed
sure, lets blame all the players, sure let them all pay, i could care less who/when/where.
the fact is.. this horrific mess will NEVER get cleaned up 100%
the fact is, i am thanking god every day i get to sail in my beautiful backyard. Saturday i sailed with a pod of 20 dolphins, sailed next to Ospry fishing, sailed with my closest friends ... and did it again yesterday.. and its all in jeopardy
the fact is i am just waiting for the black death to come and ruin my heaven on earth.. then what do i do? move to .... ???
i was spoiled with some of the most incredible sailing in the world.. and i was thankful every week when i got to sail in it (i have sailed 2-3 days a week for the past 4 years)..
and my life (along with evreyone elses) will be changed/crapped on because BP used shortcuts/ someone didnt check a battery in a blow out preventer / someone decided that relief wells were to costly / and other hardware wasn't in place that (admittedly are expensive) that could have helped.
I also blame myself and everyone else for demanding oil
i blame ronald mcdonald...
the us govt had to relaxed regulations.. etc etc etc...
none of that will help stop the 250,000 gal a day (or what ever the # is) pouring into MY sailgrounds
