Think of it this way, if a private company does a bad job, you
fire

them
and
get a company that will do the job. If the government does a
bad

job,
you
get to listen to senators try to justify spending more money
and

raising
taxes while the problem never gets fixed.


Is ATC doing a bad job?


The same people running ATC are running the security apparatus.


Human directed ATC can't compete with automation from a
probabilities,

or
capacity, standpoint. Besides that Steve, he is refering to firing
Contractors. Eventually less people will be needed to control the
sky

and
Contractors are a lot easier to get rid of than Civil Service.


Problem there is contractors have little incentive to do well UNLESS
there are long-term probabilities.


The incintive is getting paid.


Ah those were the days, eh splaps boy?

No begging for your wine money..
