| Message | No. If we don't set quotas, we will run out of fish and then the fishermen will suffer. If you have too many fish products in the markt their price will fall. This is another way of protecting our economy AND our fish. |

| Message | Our fishermens economy will suffer from this. And its because of supply and demand that the fishermen will only try to catch as many fish as they need, cause if the catch to much the prices will fall, something which will not benefit them |

| Message | Most of them don't know that. The tendency of every industry is to produce more when the prices are high creating a drop in prices. |

| Message | A experienced fisherman knows how the fishing market works. And what you just pointed out is good for consumers, and at the same tiem when prices are low less will be produced, so it will self regulate itself |
