Did You Know That Antonin Scalia's Son Is Sabotaging Wall Street Reform?

[Dustlawyer]

23. You can be sure Daddy Scalia holds a grudge on top of his crappy politics!

Chip off of the ol' block-head, Daddy must be proud!

Both Scalia and Alito's son's work at the same mammoth firm that represents BP in their numerous delaying appeals on the shitty Class Action Settlement that is denying 75% of victims while BP plays the victim because of several hundred claims that fit the V shaped accounting curve that BP came up with in the Agreement to avoid having to look for causation in each and every case. I'll hand it too them, it was a master's stroke for a amoral corporation. They secretly LOVE this deal because it saves them billions in payouts to "legitimate claims" (remember BP said the would pay "all legitimate claims"from day 1) while at the same time, the few claims that had losses not caused by the spill that meet the V shaped accounting curve that BP has to pay are what they are using to play the victim and hold up ALL SETTLEMENTS for a 10 month period until last month.

The victims had to show a drop in income in 2010 after the spill, but they had to rebound in 2011 to get any money. Most businesses did not rebound that quick. Hell, most Americans believed there was actually 20 billion set aside in a fund when Obama blessed the newly formed Gulf Coast Claims a Facility with the "Independent" Ken Feinberg (BP hand picked him to be "independent" and came to Obama's rescue, so he thought, to get the disaster out of the MSM since they were calling it "Obama's Katrina!" He even gave BP control over the Coast Guard to do BP's bidding. It was the Coast Guard and their big planes that sprayed the Corexit which is killing the Gulf sea life, but which sunk the oil to the bottom where it couldn't be seen or recovered.

I digressed to BP to demonstrate that we in the BP case do not stand a chance of ever winning at the SCOTUS level since Scalia and Alito never recuse themselves!
