Then again the price off the boats is pretty damn high for what you get.
The boats
DO NOT set the price either dockside (damn tough to do these days btw) nor in the supermarket. Those that sit off to one side and
Speculate in the manner of stock market trading are always trying to get the
absolute maximum into their pockets for every single pound. It is they who dictate (for
Dictate it is!) the price of lease quota to the actual fishermen, who in turn must then pass that along to the Buyer, who then in turn passes that along to the Market. Cozy little scam when you're sitting at the top.
EVERYONE else pays through the nose. Real Fishermen, and every single consumer who buys the product pays directly into the pockets of the absentee Fish Brokers. What an effing Mess!
The price to all could be substantially lowered simply by doing away with the Speculators. Well past time for the
Use It Or Lose It program to do away with these Rip-Off Artists!
Also somewhat funny (almost that is) that when their "
right" to hold and lease quota without fishing it is questioned, they
SCREAM just how much every single ounce is needed for the fishery to survive. But when Shea offers another angle for them to lease at a profit, well Guess What? Suddenly "
quota can be made available". Lying Fat-assed Swine!
DO NOT BUY INTO THIS SCAM Folks! Tell them to stuff that possibility right back where it came from!
