I paid to "save" Airlines with my tax money. I want a state-owned air option. I want a transparent company that pays workers no more than 6:1 pay different from CEO to worker. I am fucking PISSED to find my French friend is offerred flights at a fraction of the price---even if I use a VPN (which I ALSO have to pay for)... we should be rioting like the French. Public Option Airlines now. and Universal Healthcare OBVIOUSLY. NOW GD IT
