Hot pinks!

The Alaska Department of Fish and Game says this year's pink salmon harvest set an all-time record for value at more than $170 million.

Chum and sockeye also did very well. Read all about it here.

Everybody's grateful with the $.45 cent pinks, when one looks at a 1975 pink, that's worth $1.90 in todays 2011 inflation adjusted dollars.

The missing 321.7% tax, can we get another study?

"Ted Stevens Frank Murkowsi trade missions to china korea hong kong poland germany england japan and taiwan Alaska state Leg task force and not even a fucking thank you"

A Big Thank You to Ted, Ben, Trevor, Frank, Lisa,...and the list can go on forever...

Just like that Gold Price, in '75; $140.00 and ounce, worth $590, on the inflation adjusted scale?

Whoops! Thank God economics is another lost art!

huge strides have been made in marketing of Alaska Salmon. I am glad to hear of the good pink year value wise and also the general health of the salmon industry.
The guy who thought he was better off at 5 cents could not have known the agony of seigning for 5 cents. It is quite a foolish statement to think you are beter off at 5 cents rather than 45 cents to save 1% in marketing tax

It wasn't the tax that did it.

in 1975, the high boat in SE Alaska caught 100,000 lbs of pinks and grossed $50,000

in 2011, the high boat caught 3.5 million pounds and grossed $1.75 million

i'll take the 1.75 million in 2011 dollars thank you.

you can have the $50,000 in 1975 dollars.

It's always irrevelant, when the Calhoune Street Dispository, is making a withdrawl to bobbyt's Carpetbag.

I notice a few missing old, Lummi Island S.E. Seiners Names, on the corruption page of yours bobbyt?

Even a couple from Petersburg?

How is it, they missed out that buyback deal, bobbyt?

Could they read the Maggie Act, the Limited Entry Act, their U.S. Document Papers, and all the associated criminal, and civil laws of the United States?

Oh yea, Robin Samuelson, I'd doubt very much even Robin would buy into your theory of what the inflation number means in the Bay's Optimum Number Report, exposing Optimum Economics?

Robin ain't that stupid?

Interesting you'd bring up Webster,

http://ourdocuments.gov/doc.php?flash=true&doc=21&page=transcript

"That the power to tax involves the power to destroy; that the power to destroy may defeat and render useless the power to create; that there is a plain repugnance, in conferring on one government a power to control the constitutional measures of another, which other, with respect to those very measures, is declared to be supreme over that which exerts the control, are propositions not to be denied. But all inconsistencies are to be reconciled by the magic of the word CONFIDENCE. Taxation, it is said, does not necessarily and unavoidably destroy. To carry it to the excess of destruction would be an abuse, to presume which, would banish that confidence which is essential to all government.

Or, Daniel "Intercourse" Webster,

NO EXCLUSIVE RIGHT!

http://ourdocuments.gov/doc.php?flash=true&doc=24&page=transcript

The words are: Congress shall have power to regulate commerce with foreign nations, and among the several states, and with the Indian tribes. The subject to be regulated is commerce; and our Constitution being, as was aptly said at the bar, one of enumeration and not of definition, to as certain the extent of the power it becomes necessary to settle the meaning of the word.

Commerce, undoubtedly, is traffic, but it is something more - it is intercourse. It describes the commercial intercourse between nations, and parts of nations, in all its branches, and is regulated by prescribing rules for carrying on that intercourse. The mind can scarcely conceive a system for regulating commerce between nations which shall exclude all laws concerning navigation, which shall be silent on the admission of the vessels of the one nation into the ports of the other, and be confined to prescribing rules for the conduct of individuals in the actual employment of buying and selling or of barter. If commerce does not include navigation, the government of the Union has no direct power over that subject, and can make no law prescribing what shall constitute American vessels, or requiring that they shall be navigated by American seamen.

Yet this power has been exercised from the commencement of the government, has been exercised with the consent of all, and. has been understood by all to be a commercial regulation. All America understands, and has uniformly understood, the word commerce to comprehend navigation.

The word used in the Constitution, then, comprehends, and has been always understood to comprehend, navigation within its meaning; and a power to regulate navigation is as expressly granted as if that term had been added to the word commerce. To what commerce does this power extend? The Constitution informs us to commerce with foreign nations, and among the several states, and with the Indian tribes. It has, we believe, been universally admitted that these words comprehend every species of commercial intercourse between the United States and foreign nations. No sort of trade can be carried on between this country and any other to which this power does not extend. It has been truly said that commerce, as the word is used in the Constitution, is a unit, every part of which is indicated by the term. If this be the admitted meaning of the word in its application to foreign nations, it must carry the same meaning throughout the sentence and remain a unit, unless there be some plain intelligible cause which alters it.

like your 1% tax in the bay?

heard there's 11 million in JT"s account there

Anonymous said...

Sounds like a great opportunity to do something fisherman driven. It takes money to make money.

We need to market more, to create more demand, thereby driving up the price on a limited supply item. Econ 101.

Remember back in the 80's when we actually had competition for our product?

When you have an industry that can't afford to reinvest into major capital projects, such as a new boat, there is something obviously wrong.

$14 lb. sockeye at the grocery store, high roe value, omega 3 extracts, milt for the frenchies, and yet it is only worth $1 lb. on the boat?

Like that Bubba Gump Shrimp Case, way down younder...for "interstate extradition of fugitives from justice" with the brains of a shrimp?

(a) The privileges and immunities clause was intended to outlaw classifications based on the fact of noncitizenship unless there is something to indicate that noncitizens constitute a peculiar source of the evil at which the statute is aimed, and, in this case, there is no convincing showing of a reasonable relationship between the alleged danger to the shrimp supply represented by noncitizens, as a class, and the severe discrimination practiced upon them. Pp. 334 U. S. 396-399.
The purpose and effect of this statute, they contend, is not to conserve shrimp, but to exclude nonresidents, and thereby create a commercial monopoly for South Carolina residents. As such, the statute is said to violate the privileges and immunities clause of Art. IV, § 2, of the Constitution and the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment...
Article IV, § 2, so far as relevant reads as follows:
"The Citizens of each State shall be entitled to all Privileges and Immunities of Citizens in the several States."
The primary purpose of this clause, like the clauses between which it is located -- those relating to full faith and credit and to interstate extradition of fugitives from justice -- was to help fuse into one Nation a collection of independent, sovereign States. It was designed to insure to a citizen of State A who ventures into State B the same privileges which the citizens of State B enjoy. [Footnote 24] For protection of such equality, the citizen of State A was not to be restricted to the uncertain remedies afforded by diplomatic processes and official retaliation. [Footnote 25]
Page 334 U. S. 396
"Indeed, without some provision of the kind removing from the citizens of each State the disabilities of alienage in the other States, and giving them equality of privilege with citizens of those States, the Republic would have constituted little more than a league of States; it would not have constituted the Union which now exists."
Paul v. Virginia, 8 Wall. 168, 75 U. S. 180 (1868).

49 cent pinks, 49 cent lawyers, for the 49th State, where the newest rant from a law team who could not find a job, anywhere but in Juneau!

Not especially complicated, from the writings of Lance Nelson, the favorite S.E. Seiners Lawyer, or Jamie Ross in Chignik too,.could NOT comprehend Carlson 1, so the Kindergarden form at Carlson 2.

How many S.E. Seine Permits would $80 million buy?

419, in 2002, of course this classic going on from 6 years after the Limited Entry Act, shown there is no limit at, the Alaska Department of No Law!

3. Although protracted, the character of this litigation does not justify an attorneys’ fee award far in excess of full reasonable attorneys’ fees.
The litigation of this case, although lengthy, has not been especially complicated nor required inordinate amounts of plaintiff counsel’s time. It was not complex litigation, as in the nature of a large shareholder or construction suit, oil spill or oil and gas tax rate case, serious medical malpractice or environmental damage lawsuit, or similar case involving multitudinous details....
