Please help NH F&G this Christmas

[psmart]

It's a complicated issue. The big picture, IMO, is that the funding structure needs to be changed within state govt.

I agree. But rather than tacking on a little bit of revenue here and there, I think we need a complete change in way F&G is funded. This probably means that F&G needs to be part of the general budget, rather than "self supporting". Obviously, this requires action by the legislature, which doesn't seem likely until the F&G crisis gets even worse and more people feel the effect of reduced services. Until then, I fear we'll have a stream of ill-conceived stopgap measures. Live free or Die.

sardog1- Thanks for the clarification.

Do you know what year the plane crash occured?

 

[sardog1]

It was a Northeast Airlines DC-3 that crashed near Berlin on (EDIT) November 30, 1954. The governor was Hugh Gregg. I don't know a whole lot more, and I've struck out trying to find any more online.

John Harrigan addressed this (kind-of, sort-of, maybe) in his column this Sunday. It wasn't an April Fool's joke either.

He writes:

"Fish and Game is in dire straits financially because much of its modern mission is not paid for by all those who benefit."
