THEIR NUTS~! Anyone check out our coral reefs lately? We don't even know the bottom line yet on what we are going to need. We don't know what we will need in 3 years, 6 years, or 20 years. All that Crude, and Dispersant (100 times more deadly than the Oil) still doing damage. That money was for the environment. We need the Federal Environmentalists down here to keep track of this money and what it is spent on. THAT IS OUR MONEY PEOPLE-NOT OUR POLITIANS. You better start getting on the phone and talking to them because I know a lot of you are fishing nuts, but you can't use those boat ramps if the fish are gone, unless you like water skiing in that dispersant with dying decaying fish. Yep this is certifiable. THEIR NUTS~!

Go ask Alaska about the Exon Valdez damage and how their system "bounced back"...NOT! That whole area is devoid of fish and animals now...years after. Why aren't we using that money to help the Gulf???? Does someone in government here have a boat?! Gee, more nice boat ramps…what good will that do when the Gulf ecosystem is slowly being destroyed?

Tue, 20 Dec 2011 01:00:11 +0000 http://www.northescambia.com/?p=78031#comment-111320 Let me guess, we are proposing that improved boat ramps will increase tax revenue by more fisherman using ramps. Which equates to more money for fishing related business' affected by the spill. Seriously.....BOAT RAMPS!!!! Is this really the most effective use of our money? I think not! Let us fix the eco-system first, so that we ensure that there will be fish available for our future generations. Shrimps hauls are down, oysters are almost non-existent, NOAA's marine scientists claim our snapper stocks are on ther verge of collapse.... But HEY, at least we will have nice, new boat ramps.
