Post Open skies policy in US will make us better

Argentina has just allowed foreign airline competition... and it has done well for Europe too...

They got away with it because the pax oceanliners were long gone, and nobody cares if a cargo ship carrying insured US good sinks outside CONUS.

Different stakes for airline pax, and airliners operating in and over the US. I don't think even the GOP would seriously consider it, other than a couple of rabid anarchists.

The article references Europe, but we kind of already have their system... a TX based airline can operate flights within CA, and vice versa.

As for Argentina, they're not exactly a shining beacon of much of anything. Assuming business-as-usual, I'd tend to assume somebody down there got bought off to facilitate this innovation.
