So what happens to BP if they get fined into hell and back? They are forced to liquidation and other companies buy their assets. Preferably Exxon since it is a US company and pays taxes.


or those crazies in the government who want the US to control the oil as a government body get their way and yet we are one step closer to to socialism... er I yeah. (tinfoilhat)
