Reply #10: These people are out of their minds with greed

From the last paragraph in the article:

The Louisiana Oil and Gas Association admitted that while it expects to be hit with tighter safety regulations, the industry must stand firm.“We don’t stop because we’ve run up against the wall,” Don Briggs, its president, said. “There are 250 million vehicles in this country and 96 per cent of them run on oil.”

To drive home the point:

"We don't stop when we've run against the wall"

Uh... physics says you DO and simultaneously bounce backwards with equal and opposite forces you dumbasses.

This from an association being located in the very state (among the 4 in the immediate path) whose major industries, including fishing and shipping, are still trying to recover from Katrina, and are now being slammed by their arrogance! :banghead:
