Given that the BP Gulf spill was the largest accidental oil pollution of a body of water in history, one would think that the company (which earned a $13.4 billion profit in 2014) would be on its best behavior. That is hardly the case. In fact, BP is currently pursuing litigation to stop making Gulf spill restitution payments that it had agreed to in a court settlement. Thats right; it is trying to get the legal system to allow the company to alter the terms of how it would pay compensation to plaintiffs represented in a class action suit -- even though BP signed the agreement. truth-out.org/buzzflash/commentary/injustice-as-bp-refuses-to-pay-remaining-gulf-oil-claims-us-government-restores-its-federal-contracting-rights
