The Chairman of the Board of BP yesterday, after meeting with President Obama, and agreeing to a $20 billion escrow account for victims of the Oil Spill Crisis, spoke to the media outside the White House, and managed to show total lack of sensitivity about the ordinary Americans hurt by the crisis!
He said that BP wanted to demonstrate that it cared about “the little people”! 🙁
Is there anything more insulting than to call other human beings “the little people?” 🙁
That is an indication of what wealthy people tend to consider those who serve them, or those who just work for a living, rather than having obscene salaries and wealth! 🙁
It is totally outrageous and condescending to use such language, and has rightfully angered many people living on the Gulf Coast who are victims of the BP Oil Spill! 🙁
Unfortunately, people who have major assets tend generally to act this way, and it is a disgusting practice that needs to be condemned to the extreme, and BP should apologize for such poor use of language! 🙁
