The subsidies to GA are MASSIVE

No fallacy.

The grants for airports listed as GA can all be considered to benefit GA
only. "R" airports are also largely GA (some that I know almost
exclusively GA). Make conservative assumptions about how much of the
grants are for GA.

Then, compare to the AV gas tax generation. There is no debate, Jose. It
is fact, confirmed by Bureau of Transportation STatistics.

Why doesn't AOPA quote the acutal numbers (revenues, capital outlays, and
operating subsidies) whenever they make their ludicrous claims?
(Rhetorical question)

To do so would be an error.

"R" airports are also largely GA (some that I know almost
exclusively GA).

"R" airports benefit airlines by making more room for them elsewhere.
That's their purpose.

There is no debate, Jose.

Then what are we having here, an argument? I'm not allowed to argue
unless you've paid.

I am paying, as are all American taxpayers who are getting hosed.

Of course, these are only FEDERAL subsidies, never mind the state and
local subsidies that airports get. Just one example: The Destroyer wants
Blue Ash to increase local income taxes by .25% to help fund improvements
to the airport!!!!

Beyond audacious!!!

I'm sorry about that. We're doing our best to slam people (and houses),
but the subsidies aren't big enough to make it go any faster.

No they can't. As I showed earlier South Arkansas Airport at Goodwin Field
(search he document for 'South Arkansas') is listed as GA but has several
scheduled flight a day.
