Alasgun...my last post was adressed to you. I was mocking your comment on your anti small businesses and your pro corporate stand. Then i thought perhaps you wouldn't get it like a few others. So I thought maybe I'd just tell you that I think you are very misguided individual when it comes to...

Well that pretty much says it all. I have nothing to add. It however helps me understand why the world is the way it is. Nothing like putting the majority of the wealth in the hands of a few. regards ryder

Dave of course I understand. I think you krrp missing your own post about who is actually paying the money to the in dependents. Who paid for the oroginal survey and who owns the rights to have the property logged etc.You seem stuck on the guy that gets a few nucks to cut a tree down.

Oops... I didnt mean it the way it came out... Dave the loggers are being paid by the corporation to do their labor. Although technically they are not employees , they perform the same function without the ususal benefits. regards JIm

Dave We agree . they are working for the large corporation.

I just got my new 22 a few months ago. I had the same dilemma. Twins or single and kicker. I was initially going to go twins, then I found out the boat won't plane with one engine anyway. So why twins? Then I thought why use a big motor for fishing? Better to use a kicker. All in all it made...

I'll buy you a drink anytime... Ryder

Dave i agree with most of what you said. However the small independents do not compete with the large corporations. As you pointed out they usually work for them. Or if they do compete it is in a very limited way. I live just a few miles from a mill. The mill is primarily supplied by the large...

I was just watching a documentary on the Alaska coast a few years ago when wild life was covered with oil . The devastation to the area was horrible. Must have been all those individuals spilling their sun tan oil. :lol: Regards ryder

do you have pics by any chance? ryder

Dan...I don't know what to tell you. I have no idea where your 100 came from. I can assure you though that a well oiled corporate logging company with a 100 men and the finances for the best equipment can out harvest a 1000 independents. And so it goes for any industry. However I agree with a...

Dan problem with your theory.. Is a small ma and pa operation can't do nearly the damage a large corporation can. I prefer to deal with real world scenarios not hyberbole. Regards ryder

Actually it was your founding fathers that warned against trusting politicians. hmmm..wondering why I had to tell you that? Regards ryder

I don't think it's a matter of closing the fish farms. Like many in here have already mentioned , we should be looking at ways to make it work. If we can have farms in areas that do not impact the wild salmon, then by all means they should be there. I am a little suprised by the lack of...

Sorry couldn't let this comment go. May in fact be the most ludicrious comment made on this site. regards \ Jim

I would respectfully remind everyone that we can get as philosophical as we like. Dosen't change the fact that the sea lice on wild salmon is causing a problem. Now what do we do about it? regards ryder

Do some scientists lie? Do some cops lie? Do some politicians lie? Do some lawyers lie? Do some car mechains lie? Geez you guys of course there are some liars in every aspect of the human population. The question should be are the majority of people corrupt? Listening to only one scientist is...

I guess you didn't understand the whole message i wrote. You didn;t mention bribing scientists..DFO..., existence of sea lice etc..you may be concerned about my math skills but I am concerned about your comprehsion skills.

Thomas. Your theory is that the local fishermen want fish stocks to go down ( including fish farms) so that they can get more money. A few problems with your theory so just follow along and I'll explain it. First of all in order for you to be correct the fishermen would have to organized enough...

I think there seems to be a lot of confusion on what's going on regarding the salmon. I would like to remind some of you more skeptical folks that it is in no one's political interest to stop fish farming. The enviromentalists get to apply for lots of money to keep an eye on the fish farms. The...
