In the next 6 months we could see unemployment skyrocket in some of the Gulf of Mexico states -- watch for thousands of lost fishing, tourism, restaurant, and oil drilling jobs...this BP Gulf oil spill is like being attacked by an environmental terrorist but the long term economic impact could be huge (and BP won't be "paying for everything").

The first thing we need to do is raise taxes on the rich-lol. And then give the money to the poor. And I would be that blatant.
