Yet they can't stand to pay a measly $75,000 each for their criminal oil spill that destroyed thousands of economic lives of the fishermen and villagers in Alaska and other NW ports...a lot of Oregon and Wash. fishermen still haven't recovered or had to quit. Great Job, Exxon!

Whatever, I live in Alaska. You don't know the half of it. All those fisherman have been compensated over and over. Oh, and the fisherman and quite a few of my friends made five times as much cleaning up the oil spill as they would have made fishing the year it happened.
