Yea I believe the $6 billion figure was actually $61 billion and was the profits BP made last year as a company. At any rate yes the well is owned by BP, who hired a US contractor to run the rig, drill the well, and get it into production. Regardless the owner is responsible for the disaster, but pointing fingers is going to solve nothing. From all reports there have been litterally thousands of offers to help resolve both the clean up efforts, and the stopping of oil flowing from the well. BP has turned down all of them and insists that it has this problem well under control and does not want any help from outside sources regardless of who they are muttling up their efforts and delaying the outcome. From everything we can see on FOX, CNN, BBC, and all the rest it sure does not look under control to me

. Up to now the US Gov has been watching from the passenger seat trying to let BP do what it says it is capable of doing, and that is getting this disaster under control. From my perspective this one well is going to put a huge dent into BP as a company. BP is huge, but no company can suffer from losses in the billions and still remain a mainstream player in any markets for very long. BP is already working on contingency plans to lawyer up and hiding its liquid assets in the hopes of riding the storm and popping out on the other side squeeky clean just like all the rest of the big money makers would do.

Our planet is bleeding and hopefully someone will figure out how to get it to stop soon, before it becomes a worldwide disaster. From all accounts this well holds billions of barrels of crude which has the capacity to strew oil over most of the planets oceans within a year or so. Once again we need to stop with the polotically correct crap and get everyone involved in this who can help get it stopped. Its never too late, but every day that this well leaks more oil things are looking very grim in deed. This man made disaster may for sure make some spiecies of animals sea, air, and land extinct. What a freakin mess...

I bet alot of Gov's start putting more money into solar, wind, and hydro power research programs after this plays out.
