I'm not much into the political arena but felt compelled to voice an opinion.

Get the nets out of the water ENTIRELY. Phase the hatcheries out. Assist the displaced commercial fishermen with farm fishing. It's cheaper per fish anyway.

Over the next four years, the fish which return do to NOT commercially fishing the PS waters will increase enough to assist the economy through the cycle of sales B&O and other Taxes.

But the one thing that is REALLY FROSTING MY BALLS is the way the state spends OUR money when they need to build something like a new Weigh Station. Jesus have you looked at those new ones. That building which has maybe 2 to 4 people working full time is about 3000 square feet and built like some arhcitect was trying to design his monument to life. Those projects must cost in the 3-5 mil range to put together and I bet could be done for half that easy. Speculation on my part but I bet I'm not far off. GRRRRRRRRRR

As for car tabs, the Goverment was RAPING us on that one. I wouldn't mind spend $100 a year if there were some accountability.
