Please illustrate how Biden isn't literally saying that Maersk will not be forced to pay for the cost of rebuilding?
He didn’t say that the government won’t go after Maersk, just that the federal government is fronting the cost. If the bridge had to wait for Maersk to pay up it could be years before they begin rebuilding.
If you believe that will happen I've (literally) got a bridge to sell to you
Is everything you post this uninformed?
Looking at their post history, yes.
They also spend a lot of time in NSFW communities while preaching how bad porn is.
It happens all the time, a lot of things get handled this way because the infrastructure still needs to be fixed in a reasonable timeline.
There's thousands of examples of this working correctly in America, and very few of it not working.
Please kindly stop spouting nonsense that's not backed up by data.
Whoa, shifting goal posts. We were talking about what Biden said, not if we believed it. Slow your roll.
How do we know Maersk is actually at fault at this juncture?
Good to see you consistently having the most brain dead takes on all of lemmy lol
Oh, there are worse
Whose at fault and whom should pay what damages will be decided over the next few years after a long ass lawsuit. The process of clearing the wreckage, speccing out, and rebuilding will get started soon. It was always going to be the government paying for the rebuild and any lawsuits winding down years later. Biden's statement is that the federal government rather than city or state will bear the cost. This is just you not understanding what's going on.
They has no info on if charges or fines are coming to the company.
It just says the feds will pay for the new bridge
