I'm pretty good with math and numbers in general but I'm still having a hard time understanding how the cost to put out a few oil well fires is $1 Billion.
Does anyone seriously know how much capital it requires for equipment and labor to put out a single fire on an oil well?
Its amazing how they throw out these enormous contract award numbers in the press and no one questions them. Its like ok I guess it does cost a billion these days to put out a fire.
Come on gimme a break George.
