Airline passengers subsidizing private aviation

There's a substantial benefit to the traveling public. If every GA
flight that landed within 100 miles of LAX would start landing at LAX,
you'd have gridlock at the airport and on the ground (as if they don't
already).
If all non-commercial flights were forbidden, you wouldn't need any other
airport and LAX would not be any more crowded.
I get really tired of hearing people beat up on the corporate jet
set. These are people who create jobs for the rest of us.
Well, nowadays they are more likely to move the jobs to the Third World.
There are lots of people flying jets. Some of them help society, some of them
hurt. It's difficult to generalize.
