Keep the hatcheries going....
First i would like to point out that i would like to pay the same amount i currently am but receive fewer services... however, the state and federal government are complete morons when it comes to conserving excess money; therefore, i would rather see my money (that would no longer be spent on the hatcheries) spent on stream restoration rather than buying $1000 hammers, $5,000,000 cogen plants (that never produced either heat or e-), or the $100,000 signs that tell us our money is at work (doing useless projects that only prolong our national misery).
We all know there is NO accountability when it comes to government spending.
but all this is irrelevent in terms of the original question.
