    Because firing the controllers worked so amazingly well when Regan did it…

      And when Elon did it. It was only a few months ago when there were reports of one lonesome controller being in charge of enough air space that at least four were required. And after all of that they now aren’t getting paid, with this fucktard saying if they decide not to turn up to unpaid work THEY’RE jeopardising all air traffic. No asshole, the GOP are the ones shutting it down.

      I’m not too familiar with the backwards labour laws in the US, but for a place that only worships the Almighty Dollar, surely you can’t get fired for not performing unpaid work.
