Control Tower Controversy brewing in the FAA

Here is another possibility. Maybe the FAA filled so many key management
positions in safety areas with incompetent minorities and women that
privatization is the only way to clean it up? 8 years of Clinton filled
the Government at all directions with women, minorities and homosexuals
many of whom are incompetent or unqualified. Now they are entrenched
pushing social agendas rather than air safety. Maybe that is the real
reason for private takeover???

I understand the real reason for the NASA problems is retirement of
"white male" experts only to be taken over by unqualified minorities. It
is not politically correct to exam the possibility but it's looking like
NASA, the FAA and other high technology Government organizations are
suffering because of social agendas and politically correct hiring
practices.

Private companies with money and profit in mind are not so bound by PC
and social engineering.

Will Alaska (and other states with votes that the administration thinks
they can woo) also get an exemption from the recent legislation that
specifies that seafood inspectors are "inherantly governmental" and thus
can't be privatized?

The Bush administration sure does seem to have a major bug up its ass
about forcing ATC privatization - WHY? At the same time they're
declaring things like seafood inspectors are inherantly governmental
(not to mention those federal employees who screen baggage for nail
clippers). There's something here that doesn't quite add up. They seem
really, really intent on pushing ATC privatization. What's really
behind this?

Who stands to gain from ATC privatization? Are there major businesses
that do this now, and others that are quietly preparing to pick up some
fat federal ATC contracts? Do these companies have any connection to
the white house and friends?

"Follow the money...."


COMMENTS:
I completely agree that there is an alternative driving force behind this.
Once of the funny things that I see is that if the white house were to
privatize the ATC functions it would have just another person to blame
outside the government for its failure to fix security related issues, the
increase in traffic as seen at airports (delays, longer holding patterns,
etc). If they really wanted to fix this issue they should probably start by
giving airports more grants and funding to accomplish advances in ATC
instead of trying to privatize it and then point the finger later at the
contractors failures. The federal government has pretty much failed in
regard to making these systems better for pilots. Instead of changing the
people they should change the bogus TFR's that pop up out of nowhere and
serve no real purpose. Im tired for one of a government that restricts the
population for its own personal uses and gains (or the gains of those
elected). If each one of the elected officials in Washington were affected
by TFR's, privatization of ATC and other issues you can bet that the rules
of engagement would have changed and for one the ADIZ in Washington DC
(which serves no purpose to prevent terrorism at all) would have been
removed by now. As I see it at 400MPH they could'nt stop a jetliner in time
anyway with the size of the ADIZ. Anyway im not gonna ramble on. I think the
entire system needs to be looked at and changed.

You know, it would go a lot further if you would just refute him rather than
engage in name-calling because you feel uncomfortable with something non-PC
he said.
