#1 So, the exhortation of 30 Billion Dollars by the executive office was not enough. The corrupt "Justice Department" must now file "unlimited damage"? WTF does that mean?

Is there any worthy law here?

#3 Start by suing the Coast Guard, they flooded the burning drill platform with Piss poor fire fighting, that's why the pipe broke off, the barge supporting it sank and the pipe collapsed unsupported.
So In reality it was a Government Caused disaster, (But Obullshit's desperately trying to blame another, ANY other)

#5 The USGov is hoping for a cash settlement so they don't actually have to prove 'gross negligence'.

This will be difficult because this is such a complicated technical matter. It will not be difficult to get experts who say that BP (for example) should have done this or should have done that. However, it will difficult to get technical experts who will definitively and without caveat say the defendants were grossly careless and far beyond ordinary negligence.
