Default Another home wrecked

No one denies that.

Saying its an epidemic was intentional hyperbole on my part, and it
did get a reaction.


So you admit to an irrational attack.

Rather than aiming to put more and more pilots (some marginally
trained under the LSA rules) into the air, the AOPA/FAA cabal should
instead be looking to improve the safety of the GA fleet,


What specifically do you think they should be doing that they aren't doing
now?

the training
required of pilots, security at GA airports in vicinity of cities
and/or properties vital to national security (such as reservoirs),
reduce noise-, air and water pollution, etc.


What specifically do you think they should be doing that they aren't doing
now on these issues?

Of course, this would
cost money, and the AOPA opposes any and all of this. Instead, they
want the tax subsidies to keep coming in, and the hell with any kind
of greater social responsibility. A truly nefarious organization that
acts against the country's best interests.


I see you making lots of demand for restrictions on travel and more
intrusive regulations - so much for your claim to being a libertarian.

I'm all for less government subsidies of GA. If that were your only
complaint you'd probably find more posters here agreeing with you.
