did I misunderstand your point completely? :)

Probably not since you've been proving time and again recently that you're smart and thoughtful, but I think I missed yours.

I was trying to say that in vilifying BP and its dividend there is collateral damage to innocent bystanders - the retirees who either directly or through funds derive some or much of their income from BP.

Though Schumer may not get it, halting the dividend actually helps the villain - saves them $2.5bn a quarter. Some briar patch!
