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!

Don't get lost on the way to the parade. We may not be able to find you ;-)

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

The real story of tax-subsidies, as opposed to the AOPA's
disinformation....

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...

What about the $40B that the President has promised to Africa?

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).

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.

Medicare is not a subsidy? What planet do you live on again?

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.

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?
