    Bloomberg's Alix Steel reports that a federal judge has ruled BP acted with gross negligence in setting off the largest offshore oil spill in the 2010 Gulf of Mexico disaster
    By the way, Halliburton also agreed to pay $ 1.1 billion to victims of the oil spill to close the case.

    The money will not fix the terrible consequences of the enormous environmental disaster.
    Such corporations gutting and destroying our planet, our home. They are causing irreparable damage...
