The Gulf Might Have A Situation!

Recently, The Gulf of Mexico had a HUGE problem. The problem was that 5,000+ barrels of oil spilled in because of a sinking Oil Rig near by. The oil could jeopardise Louisiana's $1.8 billion Fishing Industry, not mentioning the other Gulf Coast states near by.

To top all of this, there's the Economic effect. No fishing means fewer boats, fewer boats means closed beaches lead to abandoned vacation plans. All of these problems may put the Gulf Of Mexico in a dark deep hole. "Shrimpers spend four to five months of the year to make money for the entire year," Wylde explained. "If you say OK, this year is gone ... for most of us, losing your salary creates a serious situation." Says David Wylde, a professor of management at Southeastern Louisiana University in Hammond.
