    D. So If you can’t afford a $30k + boat you don’t get to eat RS? Sounds pretty entitled to me. What else you want to ban? No sale of beef unless you own a cattle farm? Banning
    Sale of RS is perhaps the stupidest idea I’ve heard all year on here.
    the commercial guys are scraping
    Buy and pretty efficiently feeding the public on a cost effective scale, not getting rich doing it.
    Raising cattle and commercial fishing of public waters is completely different. A rancher completely owns and raises their product. A commercial fisherman just takes from the resource without the real ability to replenish or manage it.

    And yes I'm of the opinion that you're not automatically entitled to have access to every type of table fare. Not too long ago the only people that had access to fresh seafood were the ones that lived on the coast near a productive fishery. Why should Debra in Colorado be entitled to fresh RS? Interesting debate.
