I fail to see how privatization will fix the problem.

Because in a private company, without all the ridiculous "work rules"
that Federal employees can currently hide behind, insubordinate
employees can be effectively weeded out.

The Union will still be there, and the union can cause the same troubles
for a private company as it can for the Federal government, including
illegal walk-outs. That's the knub of the matter - privatizing the FAA
won't make the unions suddenly vanish or change attitude. If anything,
it'll cause attitudes to harden.
