If you are a CEO of a corporation pay attention to these very different types of disasters
1. If you cause a major environmental disaster you will have pay money to the government (Example: BP) AVOID!

2. If you cause a major economical disaster the government will have to pay you if you're considered "Too big to fail" (Example, Wall St. bail-out with Main St. tax dollars) Then give yourself and other board members big bonuses and pensions and throw a big party.

1. Actually
the Wall Street bailout was supposed to allow banks the ability to lend to citizens. But the banks were greedy.

The BP money is supposed to help citizens. Lets see how BP succeeds in that.

2. Most of the clean-up workers are getting $8 - $12 an hour
But on the news they showed two guys on a yacht and they both were getting $2000 a day each using a small can to skim and only a 5 gallon bucket to put it in. The regular workers individually are probably removing hundreds of gallons each a day while these two friends or relatives of some law maker are only cleaning 5 - 10 gallons.
