Take a look at the food industry in general.. It is dominated by huge corperations. There are only a small handfull of slaughter houses that deal with all of the beef and pork in this country. The stage has now been set for the corperate take over of the ocean. With sector based qouta system, catch shares can be bought and sold. This means that the gorton fisherman can buy out all the qoutas in point Judith for his factory ship..
There will be a lot of good fishermen looking for a new jig when the owner of his boat sells his allotted share to get out of the debt he has found himself in.
