Agree....And this is why also they WILL get paid from BP......Delays cost them dearly.....Open and shut case BP will quickly get out of their hair IMHO.....I truly believe there is a whiteboard in a BP planning office, that shows something like this.....
....paid to fishermen........$5.7 billion......
....paid to surf board companies.....$290 million....
...paid to bait store owners.....$185 million....
...paid to restaurants......$1.7 billion......
..paid to hotels and tourist bus companies....$1.2 billion....
...paid to attys.....$2 billion......
..paid to roofers, janitors, school teachers, car rental companies, airlines, radio stations, clothing stores, grocery stores, strip joints, gas stations, graphic designers, artists, singers, dancers, bouncers, clergy, electricians, plumbers, pilots, bartenders, jockeys, center fielders, personal trainers, little league coaches, oil change employees, train conductors, and last but not least UPS drivers......$11.75 Billion........
People left to pay.....
Nuns, pastors and ATP.........$3.2 billion......That leaves $100 million for Nuns and pastors...they will be happy too....
Add that all up and they are still $12 billion to the good....... |
