Maine's Outfitter Welfare

[Zim]

Why am I not surprised? Yet again special interest groups line the pocket of a legislator to abandon the public trust. This time it's Maine's Troy Jackson.

Want to know what happens after they get a foot firmly planted in the door? Paid your dues and waited your turn for 18 year?..........Bend over and grab your ankles:

Sounds like an SFW plot to me!!! Pretty soon they'll be auctioning them all off to the highest bidder just like the EXPO!

The Maine folks should check all the state legislature members political contributions that they received and see how much comes from all the people/business that will receive the tags.....pure money and greed!

This is ridiculous. As someone thats been applying there for moose for awhile now i feel screwed as the number of possible tags just took a hit. Thanks for the information Zim. Sucks that animal management has to be muddled up by politics
