props are exempt from the user fees, that is where every civilian pays their dues
why shouldn't execjet customers pay their fare share of user fees like the passenger on my airplane do? because they are wealthy and superior , rigth?just like our current tax system where the wealthy can use tax loopholes to pay less in taxes than you or I. because they are superior and are entitled.
you call that capitalism? it is not, those fat cat bastard use the government to regulate how much you pay and how little they pay. their businesses have benefited immensely from the infrastructure put in place by the government with our taxes and most of them have had at one point or another government contracts ,loans and subsidies .
they are just just as socialist when is convenient for them, but they like to scream "free enterprise" when it might hurt them from upgrading their home in aspen
wake up!! you will be paying user fees soon and I don't feel sorry for your wealthy customers. it will not hurt you or them at all.
its time to pay up leeches
What a ******ing idiot!

so did/does Castro, Stalin, Chavez, Marx, Lenin, Mao, and every other freedom leeching dictator throughout history. (minus those that were technically fascists) that's puts you in some fine company.
The country was founded on freedom, capitalism (although in its infancy), and entrepreneurship. If you want to be a socialists. Go live in a socialists county and suck at the government teet you are beholden to.

The argument about FAA funding should not degenerate into class warfare. It should be based on what is best for aviation as what is good for aviation both commercial and general is good for the economy and the country. The user fee system has had detrimental effects on GA in other countries. I don't want that repeated here.
