If Wall Street Ran the Airlines...

Every step of intervention results in more cancelled or delayed flights. If there is a risk of delay, such as de-icing the logical solution is to cancel the flight. And why not, they already have your money, you will get to destination eventually, but, thanks to the new rule, no one cares! If you get caught in snow at DFW, it is a minimum 3 hours to de-ice, so, next time you want to fly, check the weather, and if anything looks bad, stay home!

As a mulit-million miler, only once have I been delayed over a couple hours, that was a snow storm in DFW!

Is the Economic Recovery Plan Big Enough?

Look deeper into the stimulas package, some of those programs are ove 10 years, only $90B is for infrastructure, the balance is pork, $10B for improved interoperative software for health care, what is that and how will that stimulate the economy? I won't add new employees, rather contracts to existing firms
