Bp has the oil rig, and they are getting nailed to the cross to pay for it.

So who is making the Asian Carp farmers pay for all the costs associated with those puppies getting loose? -
I've been to the MS delta fish farms and to Amish prawn and catfish farms and they don't use Asian carp to keep the ponds clean. They use grass carp. I know there are reports that Asian carp escaped from fish farms but I don't understand why the farmers would use them because they eat everything that swims and are destructive to the fishing business.
