    IIRC (used to live in Louisiana), after the BP oil spill, oil execs were offering shit tons of money for people to take them to and from the spill site. A lot of fishermen (who could no longer fish) told them to fuck off. The offer was on the table, and I remember a bunch of suburban chuds taking out loans to buy boats so that they could do it. Looking back in to it now, it looks like BP was sued for not pay people to ferry them, like they promised lol
