Beach Front BP Property
What would you say to a deal that I could get you a beach front piece of property on the Gulf Coast for $901.60? I’m talking about 150 feet to the beach, 100 feet by 100 feet lot of prime beach front property to put your beach house up on? I have a deal that nobody else can beat for property all along the United States Gulf of Mexico. To qualify all you have to do is spill millions of gallons of oil from a botched oil well and be the CEO of BP aka British Petroleum.
If you do the math, BP is setting up a relief fund of $20 Billion for the spill. There is 1680 miles of coastline inside the Gulf of Mexico that is part of the United States. Work the numbers down and it works out to $2254 for each square foot that touches the ocean. Work the numbers out to the size lot I described above and BINGO is the end result.
I’m disgusted and the worst part of the equation is that they haven’t stopped the spill yet. All of the Gulf Coast states are so screwed. All of the fishing industry can kiss its ass goodbye, if you haven’t seen the documentaries on the Exxon Valdez spill in Alaska which was 18 years ago, it decimated the entire fishing community. The population of fish never recovered and the shores are still soaked with oil 18 years later. Same goes for tourist running for the beautiful beaches all along the Gulf. The west coast of Florida is so screwed. All those northerners can save a few bucks and just go down to the basement and sit by the oil tank with a sun lamp and get the same experience. This is an environmental disaster of epic proportions and our nation should be begging for ideas from anyone and everyone.
WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

20 billion sounds like such a huge amount of money. Thank you for putting it in perspective like this. It really isn't anything at all, though BP probably expects the "small people" to leap at it. It's just more of the same from BP.
I'm pissed Chell. What really pisses me off is that this is just a bandaid to the disaster that this whole spill has the potential to become once this shit hits the GULF STREAM!!! All up and down the east coast of the US and Canada and right on through Georges Banks which is the richest fishing grounds in the world. Then it will hit Iceland and then Ireland and England.
This is a world wide disaster and people are thinking its an American problem. No it isn't!!!!!
