BP owes the whole of the United States of America answers and restitution.  Who will make them pay?  I ask myself this question all day, everyday.  Our ancestors came to this great country, thousands of lives lost to secure our way of life; and now in the midst of economic ruin, cannot the United States of America stand up and do something.  The ramifications of what happened is not just oil to be cleaned up, but the lives, jobs and homes of everyone living on the Gulf Coast.  This has already gone on too long, but no one seems to know what to do.  How can that be?  BP has destroyed a large part of our beautiful coast and marshes, not excluding the animals and marine life.  What is the government going to do next?  How are the families, that relied on the riches the Gulf abundantly provided, going to move on? 

Katrina was enough…. Nashville flooding was enough…., but these were natural disasters.  We survived, rebuilt, and rose above all expectations.  It is the man-made disasters that I cannot stomach, not on this level.  Granted no one is perfect, but the magnitude of this disaster has a larger effect on the future of our great nation than what some lead us to believe.  I may not effect those which have endless supplies of funds, but the basic groundwork of this country, the pay check to pay check people are the ones who will suffer the most.  Though they suffer the most, their resilience and perseverence will be astounding.
