Makes me sick that BP could even profit from a single drop of oil collected during "cleanup," while they expect taxpayers to foot a chunk of the bill. But that's nothing compared to the sick in the pit of my stomach over the environmental impact of this mess.
That sign, at an obviously BP station, is perfect.
Unlikely that the CEO would grasp the message, I think. They clearly believe in their bones that there is one set of rules for ordinary people and another for the powerful (themselves).
What might help is if whenever they have a rig drilling a new well somewhere, the CEO was required to live onboard. It might result in more diligence in the safety precautions needed to prevent explosions.

I think that all the folks cleaning up the mess should ship it all to BP's executive offices.
