Default AOPA has totally lost it

Well, I guess there's something vaguely flattering to see that you feel
General Aviation should be held to higher honor-bound standards than every
other interest and lobbying group (unless, that is you are also posting
similar laments as "bulletlune" on pro-gun newsgroups, or "splashlune" on
boat enthusiasts' sites) but I am concerned, for someone reaching retirement
age, that you still appear to suffer from the illusion that politicians
order "studies" in order to inform themselves of the facts and hear the
opinions of all concerned parties, in order to make sound, unbiased
decisions in the best public interest. Most of us, by adolescence, had shed
ourselves of this dangerous illusion.

GA airports get on just fine thank you very much without politicians
"studying" them, which usually only means developers studying alternate land
uses.
