This whole thing is truely sad. So many people's lives have been destroyed. And, at the end of the day, BP will pay a small (they are worth nearly a Trillion) fine of a few Billion dollars and will move on. None of the people in the Gulf will see any of that money. They will get screwed just like last time (Katrina). The problem is political, social and moral. BP made it even worse with the chemicals they used to try to hide all of the oil in the deep sea. The problem is persistent. Just like the drug war, until governments stop trying to control what people consume into their bodies, that war will never end. But its different, until we stop using oil, the problem will NEVER go away.
