Danger: Congress at Work!


Please, Virgil
Lead US out of this Inferno!

With one malicious and grossly irresponsible observation, Congress, in its pathetically hapless efforts to re-invigorate our economy, may have inadvertently dealt a mortal blow to the entire corporate jet industry.

By ridiculing our auto industry’s CEOs for flying to the congressional hearings in their corporate jets, our legislators injudiciously revealed their naivete and their abysmal absence of understanding of our planet's modern, global economy. It was as though they were crowded at the windows in the caboose of an ancient freight train and pointing maligning fingers at planes flying overhead. It probably has not yet occurred to these gesticulators that they have perhaps, forever forfeited the freebie rides they have always so eagerly sought from corporations and were usually so generously given.

Congress! Stop posturing! Start cerebrating! You keep treading in quicksand and you are taking all of US with you!
That mindless glance by Congress at the role currently played by corporate jets saw only flamboyance and needless extravagance, but intelligent, unpoliticized scrutiny reveals that these planes are a vital and indispensable cog in the gears of our present day global politico-economy.
