I am wrong does this card have any value to protect our ports from U.S. born Citizens that fish for a living?

Got mine a couple of weeks ago. I totally agree, its just another tax!
I don't believe it serves any purpose, especially for those holding their mariners license, we already went through all the security checks and fingerprinting. Add the fishing license to that and it is going to get way too expensive for us to charter or even fish for that matter. What will happen when clients want to take a charter to find out they need a license (even a 3 day),. Gonna hurt charters and tackle shops. Short sighted morons in office (opps did I type that out loud) !!!!!!!
