"But oystermen don't have a corner on the virtue market because of their long history and tradition. Much can be said about the thousands of people of this country that worked in the textile industry or the auto industry or steel or whatever that lost their jobs through no fault of their own."

I am totally surprised by your comment as it sounds so leftist. I would take the position a lot of jobs were moved globally due to the over unions over the years pricing themselves out of the market. Steel strikes, auto strikes as the unions became too powerful. Once it started it just snowballed.

The oysters folks did not price themselves out of the market. A third party just screwed up and that's it for the oyster folks. It is their culture and livelihood.

Man, I sound like a Ditto Head.
