I agree with you. Do we bail out the hotel industry? what about the theme park or resort industy? The gov't does have the responsbility to help but a staight bailout? I think the Gov't should have purchased airline tickets to be used by gov't employees on gov't business. Instead of a cash bailout, buy the same amount of monies worth of tickets, after all that is capitalism. We pay money for products or sevices rendered.
Skywalker are you sure you are not a conservative?
