From Jeff Adelson’s Questions remain about Crescent City Connection’s future, with or without tolls published yesterday on NOLA.com:
To pay for the ferries, like most ferries ever, pay as you go fees. The lighting: All was well before lighting was installed, turn them off, As for grass cutting; borrow a goat from the petting zoo, or perhaps donations from those who want to pay tolls, will buy a herd of goats. Methinks, government folk, have a problem, with letting a cash cow go. Aaron Broussard could be the first goat herder. ~ S. Pimpernel
Indeed Aaron Broussard is a Goatherdering original.
When the pokey countdown is over, the GIC can apply for a state job with MRBA and continue to suck on the goat teet. Hilarious!
The bridge tolls clearly qualify as the gift that kept on giving to the local kleptocracy.
