What congress and the average citizen fail to realize is that the corporate jet, while maybe a little expensive, offers these execs. of multi-billion dollar companies more time to do more business....It's not really good use of the CEO's time to have to drive 6 hours from Detriot to DC, and then 6 hours back, when they could have been there in 40 minutes...they lose 2 days of work in travel time alone!.....time is money!!
