Barrack Obama came to office with an agenda to fundamentally change America. An element of his agenda is a plan, known as catch shares, to restructure the nation's fishing industry. The author of his plan is Dr. Jane Lubchenco, the environmentalist rock star and former vice chairperson of the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF). When it comes to the oceans, the protection of fish, and the punishment of the evil fishermen, Dr. Lubchenco is as extreme as Obama's former green jobs czar, Van Jones.

Haaaarrr - unless we raise a lot more hell than we have so far to date. We need to slap our Congress-critters so hard their ears ring for a month - hang them in effigy - burn dummies of them at the stake coast to coast - and TELL THEM, we will stop JUST doing it to effigies if they don't act to reign in this out-of-control fed-gov.
Well, damnit... WE are supposed to be in charge. Not 'them.' I think we need to underline that rather harshly somehow. Would 3 million standing outside their doors in DC with pitchforks do it? Somehow I think even that might not elicit the needed attention.
LOL
THAT WILL get attention... but, most likely not the kind we want.

Double?
Gasoline prices are now close to triple that of January 2009

“Under my plan electric rates will skyrocket!”

And Cattlemen in Texas are going bankrupt because they aren’t getting the appropriations they used to get. Everything’s going downhill.
Something like that... burn ten per day until all have been properly notified of our displeasure!
Wouldn't addition of a few media-moguls to the mix help as well?
DO THAT and get the video's posted on the net... and I'll bet that tightens ALL sphincter muscles in Congress.
Yes - all too true!
Wouldn't it really get attention if about 10 or more happened on a single day... a dozen a week, 50 a month?
Well - maybe it's just a nice 'pipe dream' - but, hopefully enough people will soon get mad enough to 'make it happen.'
And YES! Not anymore!
We have an obvious all-out attempt by our government to destroy what is left of this nation - economically.
I've got to get out of here - I'm going to go see how hard it is to make a recognizable Congressional-Dummy to burn in effigy. First, must buy a cheap but good digital video camera.
Red Snapper in this area are at historical abundance yet NOAA comes out with a report that says they are “at near extinction”.
Congress needs to exercise its Oversite and investigate why NOAA is producing fishery stock assessments that have ZERO credibility.
Lubchenco also was with the PEW Org. and Environmental Defense Fund before Soetoro appointed her to NOAA.
There also is the case of NOAA’s top law enforcement officer who was found to have shredded over 140 case files in his office. This was related to a slush fund thay had from fining fishermen exorbitant amounts for minor violations.
Lubchenco punished him by reducing his salary from $158,000 to $154,000 a year and transferring him to another position.
You can bet your bottom doughnut that industrial aquaculture is behind this little scam.
I was talking to the meter reader and he said rates are going to double in 2011.
“Catch shares are transferable or tradable. The fear amongst fishermen is that the transferable catch shares can be sold to anybody, including big corporations or other governments”
that’s exactly what it is meant to do. It is a monetization scam, like carbon credits, hiding under environmentalist clothing. EDF is Wall Street Banks. One in the same.
I would value the author’s attempts, but he is barely above a business cultist who cannot imagine businesses working against other people’s interests. He knows what it is all about a little, but focuses on insincere hippies or other bogeymen. It’s about the money, the hippies are the “front.”
Girl, you, as a sportswriter, need to see this.

But a journalist in DC that has a sheep ranch out west receives huge federal funds every year - all from your hard-earned tax dollars
Stand up:
Sam Donaldson

Very punny!

EDF gets “a piece of the action” for fish that they certify as OK to buy
It is “pay-to-play” with heavy-duty extortion and blackmail
Ban fish
Force restaurants and shops to charge top dollar for the EDF-approved logo
No problemo for the wealthy elites
It is like the “content” McDonald’s must post
Yet at the Chi-Chi gourmet restaurants the chubbies can order and have all the fatty foods, drinks, desserts they wish to order
No nutritional disclosures on the menus at those places
Say - where NYC Mayor Bloomie eats -

We on the West Coast have been dealing with this for years. The waters off the the Central Coast are part of the Monterey Bay Marine Sanctuary (which goes for miles above and below the actual Monterey Bay) and are overseen by NOAA. If you wish to try and to interpret the many regulations created by NOAA for the sanctuary have at it
Here’s one telling section
The NMSA authorizes NOAA and the program to assess civil penalties (up to $130,000 per day per violation) for violations of the NMSA or its implementing regulations and damages against people that injure sanctuary resources. [See sections 306, 307, and 312 of the NMSA
If your boat sinks in the sanctuary you have 24 hours to get it up off the bottom and out of sanctuary waters or the meter starts running. And yes you could be charged up to $130,000 per day for a commercial salvage company to come and fetch you sunken boat.
The above once happened in my house, but no more. My liberal leaning wife REFUSES to believe it. I am of the opinion that she is part of a large majority in this country.
