BP WILL pay,but only a fraction of the long term cost,an only eventually ,after spending years in court arguing about it.
Pity Congress won't pass a law setting the fines (say a $billion) and costs to BP.with massive interest charges in the event of any delays in settlement. Pity the US government won't simply seize all of BP's assets immediately.

TANGENT: My father was an executive with BP, working for them for over 40 years. I'm acutely aware of what an amoral bunch of cunts they are. --Dad was one of the most honest and honourable men I've ever known,so had problems from time-to-time.
