I am not sure it matters so much as it does they are held accountable for the damage.
My question is will the government, in the end, really hold them accountable, or is this just political grandstanding by the Administration to try to appear strong while really giving them a pass, as long as we can make a side deal on cheap oil from BP in the future? Time will tell.
