BP should pick up the tab because of lost jobs


The lost jobs are because of a stupid and short-sighted overreaction by the regulatory authority, not because of the oil spill. It is not BP's responsibility.

Overreaction? Should we continue to let everyone drill willy nilly in deep water when apparently BP is blaming their inability to stop the damn oil is because of water depth.

Are you aware of the ecological ramifications this spill is going to cause?

The moratorium will have very long lasting effects. The oil companies are going to use their drilling ships and rigs. If they can't use them in the U.S. they will move them else where. Once they start drilling new wells outside the U.S. they are not just going to come back because the government says, "OK Moratorium over!". 6 months will turn into several years before drilling activity in the gulf gets back anywhere close to where it is now.
