THIS AGENCY NEEDS AN AUDIT AND AN INVESTIGATION. IT IS TOO COMFORTABLE PANDERING TO THE COMMERCIAL FISH INDUSTRY, WHICH HAS BEEN MAKING EXTINCT SPECIES AFTER SPECIES AFTER SPECIES. THEY TAKE WHATEVER THEY WANT WITH NO REGULATION WHATSOEVER. NOBODY CATCHES THE ILLEGAL FISHING THAT IS GOING ON. THESE PEOPLE SIT IN THEIR LITTLE BUREUACRATIC OFFICES IN SKANKY CORRUPT WASHINGTON DC AND NEVER GO OUT TO CHECK WHAT IS BEING BROUGHT IN ON THE BOATS. CREW ON THESE BOATS GETT A MILLION DOLLARS FOR A OCUPLE OF DAYS WORK. AND THE PERMITS ARE GIVEN TO POLITICAL FRIENDS, WHO THEN CONTRIBUTE TO CAMPAIGNS OF POLITICAL FRIENDS. IT IS A SNEAKY, DIRTY BUSINESS AND I DONT BELIEVE IT IS DONE HONESTLY AT ALL. IT NEEDS INVESTIGATION. I DO NOT THINK THIS SHOULD GO FORWARD. THE NEW OBAMA TEAM NEEDS TO TAKE A LOOK AT THIS AGENCY.
