haha good one, the boys down at the maga rally will get a real kick out of it as you stroke eachother off

You have it exactly right. I can see why you didn't post with an identity, you'd get punished by the reich wingers. Wage theft exceeds all other theft combined but maggots are still crying about shoplifters

This is a horrible idea. This will just take money away from having decent public airports and reduce the incentive to provide them. We don't need more ways for the rich to separate themselves from everyone else.

Whilst I'm no fan of the uber wealthy (I'm not at the point of saying we should eat them, but we do need to tax and control them better before we are at that point) this is actually a more sound business move. Most large airports have a "hidden" private terminal that the wealthy can use to avoid the hoi-polloi. London Heathrow has one, it costs £2,500 a person and that's just paid to the airport. In effect it ends up subsidising the other airport operations (better than having overpriced restaurants and LHR is one of the few airports where eating there doesn't cost an arm and a leg).

LHR doesn't handle GA so that's 2,500 quid for getting on a commercial flight. Private aviation in London is served by other airports like Farnborough.

With SFO, I suspect the problem is that they don't have a lot of room to expand.

America is a democratic society, and its rich are just ordinary citizens. They may have more $$$, but they are otherwise equal to others, not a separate noble caste.

In other words, they're "just like us" ... but they should never have to mingle with the peasant caste when they travel! That would be un-American!

However back in the real world, in the US deistically the rich count far more than the average person, when it comes to the government, hence why so many in the government kowtow to them.

They might only get one vote themselves, but enough money means you can buy the votes of others, by hook or by crook if necessary (The whole reason for Fox News' existence is to control who people vote for by limiting the information they receive). At that point, they also get to dictate policy.
