SUPERFERRY - HOWNOTTO DO BUSINESS IN HAWAI`IShips' Survival Now In Hands Of Hawai`i CourtIf a single situation could be held up as a model to discourage enterprise and investment in the state, it is that of the Hawai`i Superferry. The Lingle administration and an equally culpable state Legislature did no one - not taxpayers, the visitor industry, businesses or public or environmental interests - any favors in their bungling of the ferry issue.Had officials simply adhered to legal requirements from the get-go, the harm imposed and that could yet be brought to the ferry company and others, and the community divisiveness their mistakes have generated would not have occurred.
