And since I'm in a mood, can I say one ting about the plane crash in Kentucky? Do you think that if the air traffic controllers had a strong union that they could have prevented the FAA from ordering staffing levels in violation of their own safety codes?

Thanks Ronnie. Everytime I think we can total the death count, another 50 or so have to get added to the list.

Or the fact that the FAA knew the controller was on his 2nd shift with little sleep and the only person.

When does our safety count for us? When do we as a nation realize that safety standards are related to paying people decently and having adequate staffing? When do we stop playing chicken and saying that 98% of the time we slide by and are willing to risk 50 poeple dying so we can save a buck in government services.
