Nick, here is a little tidbit from the aid package the airlines are aiming for...

"Airlines’ requested aid includes $25 billion in direct grants — five times more than what they received following the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks — and it is crucial for the carriers, according to their lobbying group, Airlines for America, which represents American, Delta, United, Southwest and others."

That's $25 Billion in taxpayer funded gifts.

Not loans.

Gifts.

Gifts to corporate raiders who cleaned out their own coffers to line their own pockets.

Fish on...
