Keeping Ferry Bars Open

By Michael Moyer

Who gave the State Ferry system the right to close the lounges on the ferries? The Alaska Marine Highway ferries are the property of the people of the State of Alaska. The people of the State of Alaska should be asked if THEY want the lounges closed.

To simply tell the people they cannot make a buck selling a beer at over 75% profit in a paid for space with power provided when they are going to retain the serving personnel is a lie.

Someone should be canned. Immediately.
