So who's liable
Very well said. The brains, conscience and decision makers of these entities are human but are not held liable for their actions. So why not take risks with others lives and money if you know that you will never be held responsible for your acts. I seriously doubt any of the executives of BP will die in poverty. Most likely their families will be unimaginatively wealthy for generations. Yet their decisions have sent many to their deaths and have destroyed the lives of thousands more. One can only imagine what a different world it would be if these people were held to the same level of responsibility as I am as a carpenter.
