Dear Editor:

BP has a long history of “accident,” going back many years. Their accidents are found to be result of “neglected maintenance and Safety violations.” They also have a long history of sharp price increases in the price of gasoline, to pay the fines they get for the Safety Violations. Frequently, employees have died in the “accidents.” Their strategy is to “Make the consumer pay for their neglected maintenance and safety Violations.” They have a refinery east of Houston. Their CEO’s retire on money that would put those rich bankers in the shade, then consumer also pays for those rich retirements.

  • So what is your point...BP make money but they don't set the price of oil........your 401K (wallstreet) runs up the price most of the time.

    No company wants to kill employee and then pay people off...BS
