There it is! Finally dropped! I'm going to just jump right into this when I get home! Scrap the 3 space stations, the research program, and 78 missions for what may be the last time. Funny in a way, don't know what to think, just know it's great and sad at the same time!

Granted, you wake up to crashing and banging as your ejection seats parachute wakes you up several minutes after going to sleep. I wish to sleep safely for several minutes

No, I just try to wait between posts. I think it would be inactive for a week or two before worrying about that.

Granted and granted but neither of you get to see them or have copies. But I must say they looked quite good! I wish to see a kerbalized dog that is made by Ileanne Bodon that I could use!

All this walk down memory lane brought this classic immediately to my mind. -

. If you have ever dealt with bankruptcy Court you know the judge has to okay your bankruptcy. Doubly so with a business, and not being able to "afford something" is not always a valid reason a lot of the time. There exists many examples where small businesses have polluted the land and EPA fines cannot be removed and they cannot be dismissed through bankruptcy, this I have seen in can cite an example if you need one. To continue, In my true to life example of an individual, this person had no option to go bankrupt there was no choice. They were forced to pay a certain amount regardless. And that is what I am saying can be applied to big business as well. The government paying for the cleanup is like the company taking out a loan and them making the payments back to the government is to pa y back that loan for their own mess so that they are responsible. Another example, even though the cause was different, the bailouts of 2008. They are an exact example of what I mean where corporations took bail out money (loan) from the government, however had to pay that money back over time. I see no difference in application for toxic spills and there are many examples where big corporations took money from the government to later pay them back... so we may end up having to agree to disagree on this one. Maybe I didn't word what I was trying to say correctly, while yes I am against big government, in my examples I don't blame the government being too big I blame the law not being applied equally to all parties involved. Because the corporation is big enough to fund campaigns, and pay people to sit at the Capitol building and lobby for what is in their best interest, with the government being so big that it can act independently of its people which the government of USA can and does very often do ever since world war II, this is what I believe to be a big Factor. If the government were truly applying the law equally to everyone and doing its best to act upon the word of the people, then big corporations would be held more liable. But I fear even in my ideal scenario, the businesses would truly never pay all of it themselves instead it would still fall on the buyers of their goods and or services. However this would help close up a lot of loopholes and rid some of the unchecked power that the government and corporations who fund it have. Admittedly no solution is perfect because you always have that wild card thing called a human involved, but people being held accountable, and understanding what they are responsible for, self-responsibility and common Sense, then I honestly believe it would be far better than it currently is.
