Anyone who flies these days knows the last thing the airline industry needs is more favors.
You already can't fit in a seat, can't get a meal, and can't take bags, change your ticket, sit where you want or even speak to a human being without incurring a fee.
Yet incredibly, thanks to President Trump's push to get rid of regulations, the U.S. Department of Transportation asked the airline industry to suggest any rules or regulations that it _ the airline industry _ wanted to lose.
Why not ask a teenager if he wants the curfew changed? Why not ask a bank robber if the safe combination is too hard? Can our government really be asking these shameless, profit-soaked airlines how to make life easier?
Yep. It just did. And _ what a shock! _ the airlines, according to the Wall Street Journal, came back with hundreds of pages of suggestions. Thank you for asking. Now that you mention it, we'd love to get rid of those pesky passengers once they pay for tickets ... .
Unbelievable. And I'm not a person who says "unbelievable."
