Obama owns the sequester follies
... So much for GSP's second runway.... Crap...
How come you USAers put up with this BS? You continually shoot yourselves in the foot.
Because in our "democracy" we are forced to choose between two idiots every 4 years.
What a detestable political stunt that all was.
Private aircraft would be delayed also. Every aircraft uses the same ATC system. Once Congress gets it snout in a money trough, they will snort it all up. Look what Congress did to Social Security through the years, they raped that fund. The Airport Improvement Fund is just another source that the &*^$#holes in Congress got their BIG snout in. Congress has a BIG money tree to pick dollars from. It's known as the AMERICAN TAX PAYER. Unless Congress gets it's head out of it's "you know what", I believe this nation will see a financial ruin like never before. An individual has to be responsible for his/her financial situation, why won't Congress stand up and do the same for nation! All we have in Congress are GREEDY individuals out to fill their own pockets. How many come out of Congress millionaires?
The stupidity of the current administration will never cease to amaze me; the airlines were projecting daily losses in the millions of dollars due to delays, cancellations etc. The loss of tax revenue would greatly exceed any of the "fake savings" from the sequester yet all the White House can say is that Congress caved in to the whining business travelers. If a business was run as poorly as the current goverment is the first thing that would likely happen is that they would fire their president / ceo, and bring in someone that could actually lead instead of just talk about how great they are.
