Algiers ferry - huh?

You guys who thought you were voting for the ferries is what makes me so absolutely disgusted with this situation. It is nothing against you. You meant well, clearly. It is the fact that our politicians went so far as to spread outright lies while threatening something we love in order to get access to a blank check. I'm seriously considering never voting again for any politician who supported the tolls.

You can also blame the Friends of the Ferry crowd for this as well. They were actively telling anyone who would listen that once the tolls were upheld last November, that they would simply push to have the toll funding of the ferries reinstated by the State Legislature.

I live in Algiers and take the ferries often, but there needs to be a serious plan put into place to make sure they are properly maintained and self-sufficient, even if that means you have to pay a dollar or two to ride across.
