We may also assume that a royalty would have been paid into the US Treasury on each and every gallon pumped out of the well? So, who's paying the royalties on each and every one of those wasted gallons that are gonna end up killing the oceans now? Some senator should start pitching a fit over the lost taxed revenues, the wasting of the resource that is/was the oil. |

All tax revenues paid to the feds go to the Federal Reserve, i.e., private parties. Every cent of BP revenue should go the people of the Gulf. |

(OP) User ID: 591484 United States06/14/2010 09:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | but I am concerned that if the likelihood of blow out prevention failure was blown off... what about the deal about presence of h2s... which they specifically questioned. |

Hmmm....wasn't there an "audit the Fed" movement that was gaining traction just before the well fiasco? Perfect cover to hide the story, if so. |
