I want some of whatever you guys are on.

Have a look at the near mid air collision near Mangalore thread. In fact I would challenge anyone to find a mid air incident involving GA aircraft in the last 3 years where ADS-B would have made a difference.

ADS-B will have zero safety benefit for GA. It has an efficiency benefit for the airlines, it has a huge capital expenditure benefit for AsA. It will have no benefit the the majority of GA IFR flights. Its effectively just another tax on owning aircraft.
