"So when the government levies a tax on railroad tickets, it's a conspiracy to destroy the railroads. And when the government levies a tax on airline tickets, it's a subsidy to support the airlines. Gotcha."The RR ticket tax went to general funds. Not one penny of it was returned back to them even though WWII wore the shit out of them. Then that Socialist fool Eisenhower built the Interstate Highway System and put half of them out of business, as well as all private passenger trains Airline ticket tax goes to PARTIALLY cover FEDERAL air traffic control Landing fees are nothing more than rent to the LOCAL airport. |
