The US airlines are supposedly so vital to the national economy that their contract negotiations and operations are subjected to inspection by the US government even up to Presidential level. Their every move is discussed in DC and despite deregulation they are often prevented from following their preferred business plans "in the national interest".
Surely such a vital national asset is worthy of support in these unusual times. The question of past responsibility is not relevent. The question is what damage would be done to the US if several major airlines were forced to cease operation in the next few months?
You can always rely on 411 for a short sighted viewpoint. I bet he wears glasses one inch thick and walks into doors!!!
