I find it hilarious that you've taken it upon yourself to reply to every post I make. You spent 20 minutes yesterday waiting for the posting cooldowns so you could hit every one. And that just warms my heart.
You're like a little dog following behind a big one that has to mark every tree and hydrant that the larger one passes.
It's okay, boy. I see you. Maybe you'll get an extra treat when we get home.

Here is a nice summary if you are too intellectually lazy to make the connections in the data sets yourself:

The second link has colors and pictures. I can take you there and show you the water, cannot make you drink.
As far as "crying", you should start calling me something clever like "cryin' skywatch". It will make you feel better, superior I bet - moral and virtuous. I don't mind - I don't get my social or intellectual validation from an internet forum, so have at it.

I asked which industries were hit as hard as airlines while simultaneously being vital to the economy. Are you telling me "all of them" is your answer? Please follow up. You won't though because you only post 1 or 2 sentence replies to everything with no substance whatsoever. I will commend you on your red Forman role play however. Snarky anecdotal remarks from the cheap seats like a heckler at a baseball game. Congrats.
I'll tee it up for you so you can squeeze out 3 or maybe 4 sentences: Airlines are essential to the recovery of the economy as well as sustaining said economy after it recovers. As sad as it is some guy who owns a comic book store in Bozeman is not. Restaurants have been hit just as hard as airlines. How do you bail out "restaurants"? How long would it take the govt to put together a program like that? Every restaurant in the country would apply for a portion of the money? A large percentage of restaurants are very poorly run and may have faltered eventually even if COVID never happened. The govt will have no way to vet whether or not a restaurant is going to responsibly use their money. How much would be wasted? 60% of "startup" restaurants fail within a year and 80% within 5 years. The same can be said for many other industries. The task is just too big and the upside vs money spent is too low. Airlines are easy and politically visible. Bailing out the guy in Bozeman is not.

I see we have been doing just fine without airlines firing on all cylinders. If one thing is apparent is that cargo is by far much more vital to the economy. The only flying that’s been going on the past year has been “must have to” travel. Everything else is not necessary leisure travel. So please stop it with your job is so much more important than anyone else’s shtick.
