    What did you think about the government subsidies provided to airlines after 9/11? I bet you have an opinion about the FAA as well.

    I have an opinion about the FAA- and it's not good. I have some friends who are pilots that can only work for small companies flying small planes because the FAA is changing the rules on how to become commercially licensed for all flight crew- meaning X amount of hours for everyone, not just captains (like it used to be before this new mandate is slated to take effect soon). Basically making it impossible for anyone to become at commercial pilot unless they have a lot of money to get the hours. So a first officer and 2nd officer need to have the same hours as the captain in order to get the position, where it used to be you needed x hours to become a captain so you were a 1st or 2nd officer for a few years to work your way up. And I hear most of the FAA guys are not even pilots, they're mostly bureaucrats.

    And my adding the DEA to the list is about ending the drug war. Waste of money, waste of good cops' time, and leads to corruption in LE..
