A "process of processing"? Is that like operating an operation? Activating an activity? Sort of sorting? Approving an approval?

I ran a performing arts org. When you book a venue, you sign a contract and pay a deposit. If you back out, you lose all or part of the deposit and pay box office FEES (including CC costs and refunds). That is usually it. You don't get sued for $1M. There is no rational basis for such a lawsuit.

Everybody is too scared of losing health insurance. They won't walk out. It is a power the GOP has over regular wage earning Americans.

If Jon Stewart were shot dead, would Trump call it a political assassination and order flags lowered? No? Why not?
The Epstein files are still not all released, regardless of who was murdered.

Oh, life is a glorious cycle of song,
a medley of extemporanea,
Trump was an FBI mole on Epstein isle,
and I am Marie of Romania.

Requires a 2/3 vote in Congress. But then we end up with JD Vance as POTUS. And then Speaker Mike Johnson. And then Sen Chuck Grassley. The nearest to an almost OKish outcome is SS Marco Rubio, 4th in line. You just can't win with the 25th in this GOP.

A study was made of adding presidential busts to Mt. Rushmore. The mountainside to the right of Lincoln was deemed far too unstable. That seems an appropriate place for DonOld Trump's puss, don't it?

Obviously, it will not. Overscheduling flights while limiting the number of controllers is the big issue. Airport capacity is another, as is aircraft maintenance. It is a complex problem domain being oversimplified by those who want to make money through privatization.

Private or not, ATC will encounter the same problems that make ATC and traffic control difficult. Weather is always a big factor in flight delays and controller workload. That. Can't. Be. Fixed. By. Privatization. Also emergencies happen that close airports. How will privatization make it BETTER?

No. ATC is local to areas or countries. In some countries it is public-private corporations (UK), others fully private (New Zealand). There are interfaces and protocols for handoffs between ATC control regions, and general flight rules (separation by altitude) that are mainly observed globally.
