  1. I live in Las Vegas. You absolutely CANNOT buy La shrimp here. ALL of the shrimp sold here is from Asia. The solution isn't for American shrimpers to work for poverty wages to compete with Asia. The solution is for Americans to give a shit about where the stuff they buy comes from. I refuse to buy Asian shrimp, so I just go without. Most of the problem is that the middle men make all the money. These shrimpers need to form a co-op, buy a processor and process their own shrimp. Then sell it at a premium as "premium wild caught La shrimp". If I could buy La shrimp, I'd pay extra for it. But, like I said... The biggest problem is that Americans in general don't care where anything they buy comes from, as long as it's cheap.
