That ATC was an inherently governmental function was established during the

I wasn't aware of that, but I believe Clinton's predecessor or McCain
or someone else with the power to do it, removed that function from
governmental control; Clinton restored it. Then the Bush regime has
made ATC non-governmental again, so they can privatize it.
