Some claim that with profits on the decline and the tough economy, now is not a good time to create new protections. Yet we've seen the damage short-sighted decision-making can cause: the housing market crash and a devastating oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico...
...If our fisheries collapse, no government bailout is going to bring them back. I challenge my fellow fishermen to consider the future of our fishing industry and the treasured pastime of sport angling.

The MLPA is a bailout... Just like the last 2 economic bailouts we got, they did nothing...Thats exactly what the MLPA is... a failing bailout. And thats only If you Assume it needs a "bailout"
But hes comparing Barney Franks incompitence of the Housing Market and basic economics, to the Kayakfishings fight agaisnt the MLPA, Nice try.
You work all day, the goverment takes there peice...
You buy food to feed your Family, Goverment takes there peice again...
You pay the goverment for a fishing liscense...they get another peice...
Then you get on the water, 100% freedom, to get away from it all, the stresses of life, the hardships of the economy. 1 day to yourself with friends to catch fish. your escape...
But no... The goverment wants to take there peice again, they want to tell you where to fish...then tax you so they can enforce it. Nice...
That guy can go smoke a pole...
