The Jones Act is really not all the new. That the author does not know about the limitations of the Jones act is the crime of public education of Alaskans, a large portion of entire economy and expenses is based on what you can and cannot do with foreign built/ foreign flagged vessels.

This was the Passenger Vessel Services Act of 1886, or PVSA, which deals with passengers. The Jones Act deals with goods.

They are two separate & distinct acts, and are not interchangeable.
