How much and what should BP pay for as a result of the oil spill
A 100% of the cost of the clean up.
Some of the cost of the clean up(please specify)
A 100% of what the fishermen lost as a result of the spill
Only some of what the fishermen lost as a result of the spill(please specify)
A 100% loss of what any business/company lost as a result of that spill.
Some of the what those other businesses lost(please specify)
none of the above
other
I believe that company should pay a 100% for the clean up, what it cost the fishermen and any other businesses that lost revenue as a result of that spill. I also picked other, the loss of tax revenue that some of those states and towns may have lost as a direct result of the spill. Of course I am not saying BP should pay what ever the companies and fishermen and cities say they lost.What they lost should be proven by looking at what they made on the average for the past couple of years(or similar company/business if it is a new company or fishing business.)
That said it is going to be we the consumer who pays since that oil company will pass those costs onto us through the products we pay for.
