your fanatical quet (sic)
for accuracy has suddenly died along with that inflated ego of yours. Finally, I'm fifty...so go **** yourself. Then get your inflated ego out of that tightass of yours. ************************** Fifty years old and you speak like that in a forum of aviators? You should be ashamed and embarrassed, but you probably aren't. What began as a polite attempt to correct your erroneous and obviously forwarded chain email quickly degenerated into an abusive display of your childishness. You have shown yourself to be a vulgar liar. Don't bother responding. PLONK! |

Yes!!! Thanks for mentioning the huge operating and capital subsidies
that the FAA provides. General Aviation is heavily subsidized by the taxpaying public. |

![]() Yes!!! Thanks for mentioning the huge operating and capital subsidies that the FAA provides. General Aviation is heavily subsidized by the taxpaying public. Hey! Let's talk about the $534 billion (and climbing exponentially) dollar annual Federal outlay for Medicare that's bankrupting our country! Versus the approximately $2.8 billion that we spend every year subsidizing commercial aviation, nationwide. That would be 1/190th of the cost of "health care" in America, in order help ensure air access in the country. Medicare and Medicaid now represent over half of the Federal budget, and have become monsters that are far bigger than transportation, defense or any other part of the budget. I think you need a new cause. It appears that you are having trouble seeing the forest cuz the trees are in your way... -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

![]() Skylune lives!!! Well, Medicare is NOT a subsidy (unless you consider seniors to be a special interest group, like private pilots), but I won't quibble that there needs to be more cost effective solution. As far as aid to Africa. I totally agree, no subsidies that will get wasted by politically corrupt regimes: We have domestic issues at home, and a fairly large (about 4.5% of GDP) budget deficit. Of course, none of this means (logically) that GA should be subsidized by taxpayers. Of course, logic and reason are in short supply here. Most of you talk like you are political conservatives, but that is complete BS because you WANT YOUR TAX SUBSIDIES!!! And you come up with the most convoluted, tortured reasoning to justify it. Total hyprcrisy. Right Dashing Dasher, you weak minded hypocrite (kitty). -- skylunelives ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Posted via OziPilots Online [ http://www.OziPilotsOnline.com.au ] - A website for Australian Pilots regardless of when, why, or what they fly - |

message ... Skylune lives!!! lol... Did someone complain to this idiot's ISP enough to get his news posting privileges taken away? I hadn't noticed, of course. Funny he'd go out of his way to find an alternative route for his useless rantings. Oh well...I still have lots of room left in my killfile. *plonk* |

At $530+ billion annually, it's the biggest subsidy of them all -- and it's threatening to completely overwhelm the federal budget. In the next ten years, it will -- unless drastic measures are taken. As for airport subsidies, I suppose you have the same objections to the interstate highway system? Or the Army Corps of Engineer's work on waterways? How about Amtrak? All of these transportation systems receive government subsidies, because they are rightly seen as essential government services. Are you advocating tollways for all motorists? If not, it is you, sir, who are the hypocrite. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

![]() Idiot!!? LOL. Of course the thin skinned, irrational pilots get upset when I shine a light on the nature of your heavily taxpayer subsidized industry, and then get me booted. I monitor many sites, but only post under certain names because many of you have brains that have been damaged by all the noise, rattling, etc. And, trust me, it is no "trouble" at all to follow all of your inane rantings on any website i choose, including i-pilot, student pilot, the cessna site, etc.. Got to monitor what the opposition is doing, and protect our communities and tax dollars from you flying socialists. Yes, socialists: for all your disingenous talk of freedom and moaning about liberal politicians just remember, you want taxpayers to subsidize your hobby. It is an outrage, as is the total lack of security at GA airports, the crashes that the NTSB pays to investigate (several thousand investigations ongoing at all times -- this too is a taxpayer subsidy), the corrupt nature of the FAA whose only mission is to continously expand and support the industry, Phil Boyer (the smirking punk), etc, etc. I am a true conservative. I don't ask that my (boating, skiing, hiking) hobbies be subsidized. I expect and am happy to pay full fare (waiting for some moron to talk about the Coast Guard being a subsidy...). Fly all you want, just don't make me pay for it (waiting for the usual knuckleheads to equate Commercial aviaition with GA). Be well. I am watching, voting, writing, and informing..... Call me a troll if you wish. Most of you have the IQ of a snail, so I take it from where it comes. Good day, eh? -- skylunelives ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Posted via OziPilots Online [ http://www.OziPilotsOnline.com.au ] - A website for Australian Pilots regardless of when, why, or what they fly - |
