Times have changed in the last 200 years .
I absolutely agree that times have changed. That’s an obvious one.
So, since you have stated rather definitively that this country could not make it without aviation I respectfully ask that you cite your source.
I do not argue that without aviation, the loss of jobs would be a substantial blow to the economy. However if I understand you correctly then what you are saying is if aviation ceased to exist then the United States would economy would cease to exist (could not make it). That sounds very far fetched to me. So please provide a credible source and I will happily read it.
