OVERFISHING PERMITTED BY AGENCY IN CHARGE OF FISHING FOR THE PAST 70 YEARS AND THEY CLAIM THEY STILL DONT HAVE DATA - ARE THEY WAITING FOR 250 YEARS TO GO BY BEFORE THEY HAVE DATA ATTENTION MARK MILLIKIN THIS PARTICULAR AGENCY IS COMPLETELY UNSUITED TO BE IN CHARGE OF OUR FISHERIES. THEY ARE LAZY AND DONT EVEN KNOW HOW TO GO ABOUT DOING AN HONEST JOB FOR THE PUBLIC. THEY ARE STEALING THE FISH THAT SHOULD BE IN THE OCEAN FOR OUR CHILDREN'S WORLD. THE OVERFISHING IS RAMPANT, NOT OCCASIONAL AT ALL. IT IS RAMPANT AND OPEN. THERES IS NO SCIENCE IN THE DATA COLLECTED BY THIS AGENCY. IT COMES FROM COMMERCIAL FISHING PROFITEERS WHO SKEW THE DATA FORTHEIR OWN WALLET ENHANCEMENT. THIS AGENCY KNOWS NOTHING MORE THAN WHAT THEY GET FROM COMMERCIAL FISH PROFITEERS. LOOK AT THE PEW REPORT. IT IS CLEAR DATA THAT OVERFISHING IS TAKING PLACE. STRANGE THAT AN AGENCY FUNDED VERY LIBERALLY FOR THE PAST 70 YEARS STILL DOESNT HAVE DATA. WILL IT TAKE 250YEARS FOR THEM TO GET DATA - AFTER THE FISH ARE ALL GONE? THIS AGENCY IS USELESS FOR THIS PURPOSE. IT TAKES BILLIONS OF AMERICAN TAX DOLLARS AND PROTECTS AMERICAN CITIZENS NOT AT ALL.
