President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

Airplanes would be falling out of the skies every day.

You mean like the 737 MAX the FAA grounded because it did fall out of the sky, twice?

Or do you mean like the two 737-300s that crashed in Colorado Springs and Pittsburgh for no apparent reason?

Or the Alaska Airlines plane that augered into the Pacific near Los Angeles in 2000?

Or the Conair plane that crashed near Buffalo?

Planes do fall out of the sky. Think how many more would if the FAA was a toothless as the SCOTUS just made the EPA?

 

Libertarian Boy has thoughts. I prefer trifold pamphlets.

 

Colgan, not Conair.

 

Libertarian of means with ability to live where he pleases splits time between northeast US and France; decries heavy-handed regulatory state.

 

Right, because I'm sure that, left to their own devices, regulated industries would maintain or improve their safety practices rather than cutting them to increase profit margins while simultaneously putting the public at risk.

 

. you are sitting there telling me how much worse the aviation industry would be without the FAA protecting us. What if things would be no different, or even safer?

Why, how stupid of me to realize that unregulated big business, with no Federal oversight, would alway puts the health, safety and convenience of its customers first. The tobacco industry is a perfect example. Banking too!

 

The market will take care of it. If United is crashing a lot, just fly American!

 

People had the choice not to smoke. I am a serious thinker.

That won't happen once FEMA is on the case.

The dead hand of regulation is stifling the marble market. Make Aggies Great Again.
