I support the petition. This is a tragedy.
 

Subject: Tragedy of the Commons

 

Allowing a foreign-owned  or domestic company to deplete the fundamental food fish that filters the water and nourishes whales, osprey, striper and many more animals,  defies all logic. We spend billions trying to clean up the Bay and then allow the removal of billions of filter feeding fish?  It’s corrupt.

I taught our two sons this:  when something doesn’t make sense, money is usually involved. In this case, money and greed are ruining our fishery. 

Please at least use science to guide us and not PAC money from the reduction fishery.

Virginia is better than this
