For Gulf Coast Fishermen, The Future Is Very Bleak

Image via CrunchBase

Being near New Orleans, I can safely say that the impact of the oil spill on the whole area will be huge - and lasting. There will be whole towns along the coast that will be wiped-out economically and ecologically because of this - can any amount of compensation from BP and/or the Feds make that right - I think not!



If you want to see a great story from New Orleans WWL-TV on this - with a great gentleman - see my blog post at http://wyld-business.blogspot.com/2010/05/oil-spill-halts-94-year-old-fisherman.html
