A Boyer acolyte makes the following statement publicly (regarding user
fees):

"That is why it's vital that we ensure airports get the funding they need
to maintain safety and generate revenue."

They need to "get funding" to "generate revenue."

LOL. Sounds like when Democrats talk about "investment," meaning raising
taxes to provide more money to public sector unions. If these airports are
such economic "engines," they wouldn't need annual subsidies. AOPA at
least calls the subsidies a "lifeline," thus implying that many would
cease to exist if users had to pay, rather than taxpayers and commercial
passengers, which generate virtually ALL OF THE REVENUE in the ATF.

The best part is that these comments were made in conference in CHICAGO!
Apparently, the economic armegeddon resulting from closing Megis has yet
to occur...
