They should drug test this crack addict. He is still strung out on crack and should not recieve anything. Contact him in a year and see where all his posts and supplies are. HE was lazy as could be in 91 or 92 when I worked with him.Not much has changed.
My mother has severe osteoporosis and has shrunk several inches over the years and can not even get disability or any help for that matter if she could work she would. What thje world is going on with this state you up the taxes to pay for a crack addict habits but will not help the ones who do. WTH

Yeah that really pisses me off. I'm a local NC crabber, the government gives absolutely NO assistance to us, yet they will buy over 1,000 crabpots for someone, like you said, is a crack head and has probably never crabbed in his life. Farmers will have their entire cropped paid for by the government if their crops fail...what do commercial fisherman get if we have a horrible year? nothing.

It takes one mighty tough man to work 1100 pots and this guy doesn't sound like he could work 200. I've been there and done that back in the mid 1970's
