    @deathboy & other usual Politic thread libertarians: Sorry, if BP goes bust as a result of LEGITIMATE claims, the Free Market system you crow as naseum about has worked properly. The assets and workers will go to better operators, period. The problem with BP is that its rich dividend led many to buy it for yield and mistakenly regard it as a safe investment, when equity based on drilling in hazardous conditions is risk capital. Again RISK capital.

    Of course, if you want to argue that BP should be protected from all the greedy, evil fisherman, tourist businesses, waterfront landowners and general environmental damage and cleanup costs they just incurred...why that smacks of...well it begins with a "s" and ends in an "-ism".
