I agree on the $27,000,000 cap BP wants on the responsibility of oil spill. |
|
Only if BP profits cap at $27,000,000. The profit spill then goes to the deficit.

1. It's not BP; it's Transocean that wants the cap. |
|
It's based on their interpretation of maritime law that caps their liability at the value of their "vessel".
