They just want the money.
Do your jobs and get off the government teat.
Go fish.

Gee, if the investment would yield cost savings and higher profit they would do it themselves. Why do they need the Federal dollars? 🤔🤔🤔

Just catch fish , Green = Scam
To: Oldeconomybuyer
Good fishermen catch fish, period. There job is not to ‘save the environment’, nor take funds for not fishing.

Robert Buchmayr of Seattle on the hook for huge bills.
Seattle is a long way from Bremen Maine where this story is bylined.
Maine fisherman all support DOGE as they the hard working Mainers who do suck on the government teat.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
lol. This stuff is hilarious.
Are the fish transgender? Need to work that in.
AP is such a joke.

Yeah, I’d like a new more efficient greener transmission for one of our vehicles but can’t find any federal program for that......

You know the old saying:
Give a man a federal grant and he’ll eat for a fiscal year; teach a man to fish for federal grants and he’ll eat forever.

So, do it at your own expense. Don’t expect a Tax payout.

“Commercial fishermen and seafood processors looking to switch to new, lower-carbon emission systems...”
I worked on an albacore boat out of San Pedro a long time ago. They don’t sound like any of the commercial fishermen I ever met.

Nice try AP, but I’m calling b*llsh*t on your story.
How many of these “fishermen” pull down money from the USAID slush fund? One of Soros’ groups?
The ACTUAL NE fishermen hate everything these groups have done to their industry.

Did the ASS Press fart checkers check the accuracy of this BS. Were the “fisherman” just whining liberals or paid actors?
