The government-run air traffic control system is a metaphor for everything. It has been falling apart for decades. Nothing was done — because when government runs anything, nobody is accountable. Elections and parties are a joke, as we can plainly see. It’s the same old story — Big Government sets out to do something like Amazon.com or Tesla. It will never happen. Trump happens to be in office. He will shoulder all of the blame.
Capitalism will get the rest of the blame. Gullible millions will agree, and respond by tripling down in favor of the socialist air traffic control and socialist airports; and then demand socialism for everything else. Most Americans want free market results produced by a totally unaccountable, unimaginably corrupt and incompetent government. Socialism in airports, education, medical care will continue to rain death and despair on us all — and then the ignorant fools victimized by it will simply scream for more.
