That could create some jobs tho.
Actually I've thought that they should have an HR department on the coast and refuse volunteers but hire them all as employees of BP at $24/hr. Seems only fair.

Only if they meet their MAR.

Everybody is all over BP about not having an emergency plan for this accident that happened. Do any of the oil drillers in the ocean have a back up plan?? If they do, why haven't they come forward with ideas?? OR, are they just lucky that this accident hasn't happened to them?
Actually, this Tea party web-site is very anti liberal and they control what they want people to see.

Maybe they need to take a page from the UPS Safety Committee handbook. Thye could plug the leak with 50 million pieces of paper that have the Eight Point Oil Spill Prevention Commentary written on them.

What about Nigeria's oil spills?
By Steve Hynd
The Guardian's John Vidal wonders why there's so little notice taken in the West of Nigeria's oil spill disasters, which dwarf the Gulf leak in magnitude.
One report, compiled by WWF UK, the World Conservation Union and representatives from the Nigerian federal government and the Nigerian Conservation Foundation, calculated in 2006 that up to 1.5m tons of oil – 50 times the pollution unleashed in the Exxon Valdez tanker disaster in Alaska – has been spilled in the delta over the past half century.

Does anyone believe the most powerful man in the world is doing everything he can do to deal with this problem ?I would have immediately called in ALL of the oil company CEO'S. I would have informed them that it would be in their best interests to gather all of the world's experts to come up with a solution to this problem. Future oil drilling sites and who would get them would depend on what private company came up with the solution. Instead of doing something Odrama goes to a BBQ memorial day weekend in Chicago and tell us how angry he is ??? He is totally incompetant ----no LEADERSHIP ability whatsoever !!!!!
In UPS he would not even be able to handle a part time supervisors job !!! Even many Democrats are starting to see this lack of ability very clearly ---aka Carville, Maureen Dowd , Gregory etc !!!

Let's see how you Canadians handle BP. It looks like they are already destroying your environment as well except you are applauding their efforts.
