Why does Exxon refuse to pay for the valdez clean up and still post 39,billion record profits .?

Answer 1

Playtoofast, son of Adam, no one has the power to refuse payment when demanded upon by the all powerful government. If the corporate giant know as ExxonMobil has not paid any clean up cost it's because your elected countrymen have not demanded so.

Believe in the deep magic that rules the land.

Answer 2

Wrong again, it cost Exxon 1.28 billion to clean up the spill


Oil, worth millions of dollars, flowing out of the Exxon Valdez would ironically cost Exxon about $1.28 billion dollars to clean up. Each Sea Otter saved would cost Exxon forty thousand dollars after feeding them lobster and crayfish that was flown in every day. The boats used in the cleanup were chartered for as much as eight thousand dollars a day. Fishermen were given seventy-five million dollars to make up for lost fishing revenues. Exxon provided villages along shorelines with food because hunting and fishing had been interrupted. The cost of this cleanup was equivalent to one fifth of Exxon's revenue for the year. Researching truth is more accurate than propaganda

Answer 3

Apparently, the United States government is not going to make them pay for the clean-up. Why would I pay a bill if I know there is simply no consequence for not doing it?

Answer 4

they havent paid their royalty payments either, while I have nothing against a fair profit, they are exploiting us, so boycott them I do

Answer 5

Because there are duck feathers in their oil.

Answer 6

and you have evidence that Exxon hasn't paid?

Answer 7

How do you think they "earned" (HA!) those profits?
