In which all becomes clear (ATC)
Firstly, a little foreward by me, which I hope will be at least semi-coherent, since I'm so pissed I can hardly type.
Marion Blakey is the FAA Administrator. Her legacy is an FAA in shambles, and the finest ATC system in the world on the brink of collapse. In addition to bringing the ATC system to its knees, her biggest push has been for user fees. In reading the article that follows, bear in mind that Boeing, Lockheed-Martin and Raytheon all want the ATC system to be privatized, and they all want the contract. The only way this will work for them and be profitable is if there are user fees in place. It is now very clear who has been holding the leash of this drawling republican bitch from day one. So, the next time you're sitting in a commercial aircraft, on the ground, for hours, because of the delays caused by an ATC system stretched beyond the limit, know it's because of Marion Blakey's single-minded push to please her corporate masters, for nothing more than her own personal gain.

Said it before and I'll say it again. There should be a 5 year moratorium/block on any Secty., Director or senior staffer for any federal agency or White House staffers or members of Congress and their staffers leaving their job and taking a position with any existing supplier or lobbying group/organization to the Federal Govt. The number of individuals getting rich on our tax dollars from sweetheart deals like Blakey's has been growing for years and has reached a level of absolute obscenity during W's administration. One of the more notable ones was Tom Scully who after strongly arguing and recommending against open price negotiations for the medicare drug plan, "negotiated" the fixed price schedule and within weeks after passage of the plan, left the Govt. to take a lucrative job with Alston & Bird, a drug company lobbying firm. Several other staffers along with a couple of Congressman who fought for passage of the plan also accepted very well paying jobs with drug companies and lobbying firms. And we wonder why people continue to flock to the thankless jobs in Washington of "serving the people"...

We have an insurance commissioner in Calif. It seems that one is retiring and taking lucrative jobs in the insurance industry. I think that that proposed rule ought to apply to any goverment post.

Is this why we have so many illegal aliens from Mexico... that they feel so at home here with a government like this?

Every year as a government employee I have to take ethics training. I can not in any way influence any decision and profit from it or I go to jail. I can't even own stock of any company I deal with. And I have to wait one year after leaving the government before I can take a job with a company I had dealings with. Sounds like the law is not being enforced or just flat out ignored.

Fellas, this ain't nothin' new. In fact, it used to be considerably more common here in the good ol' USA.
Still sux, though. Darlene Druyan is one of the few who got caught and paid a price.
