Hmm, actually a bailout of the airplane and other industries isn’t necessarily bad IMO.... if it was paired with partial government ownership too, which I think I’ve seen suggested....

Air travel is an essential component of infrastructure and is crucial to the economy. As such I don’t see why it’s insane to suggest nationalizing it and driving down costs the way USPS does for parcel carrying. Any private airline would need to compete with a semi-publicly owned corporation. Seems a fair trade.

And in literally every case the government should be guaranteeing wages and jobs for those in those and other industries hit hard by this debacle.

#im admittedly not an economkst #but this seems to make sense? i dunno if i sound like a moron lmao #also restauranrs need a bailout too espexisllt since their margins are already pathetic #but the bailout needs to accompany wage giarantees and eviction freezes ofc
