large, very dumb corporations. If any further evidence of the need to
privatize the FAA is necessary, I will be very surprised.

I fail to see how privatization will fix the problem.

Because in a private company, without all the ridiculous "work rules"
that Federal employees can currently hide behind, insubordinate
employees can be effectively weeded out.

As it stands now, FAA management is obviously nothing but a paper
tiger. As an American taxpayer, I feel that this needs to change --
and I don't see any way for that to happen inside the Federal
government.

I wish it were otherwise, because I truly do believe that ATC should be
a governmental responsibility.

Big corporations are often just as political as the government.

Privatization isn't the answer.

Leadership is.

Unfortunately, there are a lot of big problems that our current leadership
has sunk this country into, and so the REAL problems of the FAA won't take
priority for a LONG time.
