• More whinge material for our jive ass troll

    From Technobarbarian@21:1/5 to All on Sun Dec 18 18:26:22 2022
    Since our jive ass troll is obviously scraping the bottom of the
    barrel for whinge material I decided to help him out. This is another
    terrible example of government regulation stifling commerce. Pretty soon
    people will be starving in the streets.

    "Swelling school of seaweed farmers looking to anchor in somewhat choppy Northwest waters

    Prospective kelp growers who want to join the handful of existing
    commercial seaweed farms in the Pacific Northwest are having to contend
    with a lengthy permitting process. It’s gotten contentious in a few
    cases, but even so, at least a couple of new seaweed farms stand on the
    cusp of approval. Their harvests could be sold for human food, animal
    feed or fertilizer.

    Two permit applications for floating kelp farms near Vashon Island,
    Washington, generated a flood of public comments to King County
    regulators. Some islanders strongly objected to what they said would be
    a risky "eyesore" offshore of their waterfront homes, while supportive commenters touted sustainable food and water quality benefits."

    "Waterfront homes" on Vashon island. IOW they're up against rich
    folks who don't want to be reminded that some people work for a living
    with a floating business right in the middle of their expensive view.

    I've seen the onshore "kelp farm" in Garibaldi. If those little
    tanks are actually turning a profit we could have a kelp gold rush soon. lol

    Mix a little of that phony baloney kelp bacon in there under your tomato, covered with mayonnaise, and you'll never know the difference! Don't forget to add a slice of "alligator pair"! Bon appetite'!

    Hmmmmm, bacon might be a small exaggeration. If you want the
    whole bacon experience you'll probably want your dulse smoked. No
    problem. But this might be another bad example of the heavy hand of
    government. I found plenty of Atlantic dulse, but none from the Pacific.
