Either we are all on the same boat, working to fix the whole problem together, sharing benefits and costs or the fish lose.

The idea that I get all mine first and you fix it so I can is not, to my mind, a recipe for cooperation.
If you think for one second, That the tribes are going to sacrifice anything so we can go fishing, Your crazy. I have spent my entire life growing up with the peninsula tribal people and they know how to play the poor indian card and still drive around in there fancy new trucks and boats yet cry about how we destroyed there way of life. And the crazy part is, Most people believe that crap.
