1. I’m No Economist

    And I’m certainly no financial wizard, but it looks like if we fined BP (pdf) for the Gulf oil spill at the same percentage rate Switzerland fined this rich guy for a speeding ticket (1.28% of assets), we’d be fining them $1.3 billion.

    A modest proposal for your consideration: an oil spill is at least as bad as a speeding ticket. Maybe worse.
