Let me understand this. The company responsible for the sinkhole is forced out of business instead of being forced to keep on working and fix it. Meanwhile, all their employees are left without jobs, the company doesn't have to pay them anything because they have not been fired and is not the company's fault?????

I thought the governmental agencies were supposed to defend the people and not the few that gathered a lot of money doing illegal things and now can go on and do it somewhere else.

Is the Texas Railroad Commission also going to fix it? Meaning, we, the people, are going to pay for it?

Furthermore, why there's no mention about the situation of the Daisetta's families that lost their jobs and all the associated business that are going to disappear as a consequence of their major customer going out of business.

It seems as if people didn't exist and social consequences were of no interest whatsoever....

Got a problem there, Barb? Why don't you take a cut in pay from your cozy white collar job and make sure your blue collar workers get paid enough to attract legal residents. Then of course your company would have to pay them health insurance, instead of having them go to the local clinic and have the taxpayers do it. And they would have to pay them unemployement insurance as well, which would cut into your companies 401k contribution. In the end, your company hiring illegal aliens allow them to hire overweight, lazy people such as yourself. Be grateful for them.
