Maine’s lobster industry has been under siege from two directions. The first is from federal government regulations. The second relates to the activities of environmental activists who have targeted the lobster industry, accusing it of being inhumane and not environmentally “sustainable. I don’t like the government picking winners and losers, but I appreciate that lawmakers are making a serious attempt to aid an industry that has been targeted without cause, and needs help. ~ Matthew Gagnon
