Catman that artical is awful! If BP had not hired those people then who? Do you need a degree to clean that stuff up? It actually sounds like a great idea to hire people like that. Get them cheap and they can stay on the job longer. Not like there is a huge pool to select from when it comes to these clean ups.

the government can't shut down any off these rigs because of one f'd up situation... which they are part to blame for...they are suppose to be checking and rechecking these rigs which goes to show you how inept government is in many instances when it comes to regulations...hell look at my industry (mining), the deaths of many in the underground mines these past few years were due to the company AND MSHA not doing what they are legally bond to do to insure saftey!!!!

Some of the contractors have hired "unsavory characters".

Bringing in some folks from Cali and not sharing every last subcontractor doesn't make a scandal...

I was just thinking they were talking about the same topic. People that are interested seem to be reading this one. Hope you don't mind.

Not a huge pool?? Millions are unemployed. Hell if I was younger I'd go down there and help out.
