Posted this on the other thread too.

Our forefathers gave their lives to create this wonderful country with all of our citizens believing in freedom in many ways. They fought the bureaucracy in foreign lands to protect the freedom of others for hundreds of years. They believed future generations would continue to fight for The freedom of speech, The freedom to protect ourselves, The freedom to feed ourselves from the bounties of this earth, The freedom to share this earth with all human races, creeds and religions.

Our government and politicians over the years have lost the original ideas of our forefathers. Our country is now run by "Greed". The Greed to control the oil in this world. The greed to control all of the money in this world. The greed to Tax our citizens to pay their high priced salaries. The greed to be powerful and control other human beings. And because of this we now live in fear of terrorism because greed always makes somebody angry.

In the past 50 years and throughout history we have seen the demise of every country That controlled the freedoms of their citizens. "Our country is next" there is no doubt in my mind that our politicians and government will ruin everything our forefathers have worked so hard for.

I can not blame it all on our government. Our own citizens have been so greedy, that companies and business men are taking their business to countries who's ambition's take precedence over their greed.

Not being able to fish means to me: The Death of our great country. Future historians will talk about the United States as we talk about the Romans, another civilization that was destroyed by their own government and greed. Not to mention The USSR, Germany, Iraq and others.

It is "Time to Stand up" and tell our government to change. We are way to proud to go down like the Romans. History will repeat itself. Start taking pride in our own resources and start taking care of our own citizens. Because If they take away the right to catch fish and not allow the fishermen to be involved with the preservation of our fisheries.This will be proof that our governments greed of power will turn our citizens against it. This will be the Death of our great country. Like a cancer it will and has spread to other natural resource industry and issues.

I want to believe in my dream to die a fisherman's father. But I believe my dream is dying also.
