    Surprise Surprise.
    As usual, the last word. Also as usual, it makes no sense.

      Have Sam tell you if he's ever been on a commercial airline flight? It's clear he puts a lot of value in the railroads, perhaps he has suggestions about reviving the Clipper ships, or even the Zeppelins.

        WTF does it matter?

        BTW HE is the one who started this thread. You and me are the ones trespassing on it.

          Why are you swearing and upset? Certainly that could be looked upon as inconsiderate, stay on topic. Please. For Sam's sake.

            And your comments (just to be negative) that make no sense at all is staying on topic?

            When people get upset they often blurt out things that make no sense. Is that your problem here?

                Trolls don't need to offer solutions, ask questions, DEMAND answers and the like.

                As stated above you still seem to think you own this forum.

                I won't go on any further since others are reading this BS, at least the few that don't have you on ignore. They know all too well who and what you are.

                    USPS books cargo space on passenger flights. People don't know that?

                    Out of curiosity Sam, have you ever flown? It's not a contest, just wondering.

                      Yes, never commercial as I have preferred private planes. I enjoyed doing my ground school, haven't flown in years as we prefer to camp as we go about our way...never in a hurry. Early on my wife said that she would never fly and I never challenged her on the phobia. My Sheriff did my instruction as he was certified to do this by the FAA.

                        My first time in the air was a rented ride in a Cessna. My kids got their first time in the air via the EAA Young Eagles program.

                          Another slam on Capitalism from a dude that hasn't the slightest notion of the reality. Airlines seldom turn a profit let alone a "big profit."

                              Who knows, who cares?

                              If you own stock in the airline, you might care -- but if you aren't an owner, then what they pay their CEO is their business.

                                Hang on there,

                                When the taxpayer has to send them cash, being that they're short on funds, in part because they used them for stock buybacks, then yeah it becomes a topic of general public conversation.

                                Corporations know how to socialize their losses and privatize their profits. And they do. This is a critique from the Left of the current state of capitalism that everyone should agree with.
