Editorial: "Commuters, it's time to speak up"

I'm always puzzled why anyone thinks that scheduled passenger air service out of Prescott is important. The economics of flying, whether in terms of cost or time, make no sense against taking one of our several shuttle bus services to Sky Harbor.

All I can see in this is that certain rich people feel too important to sit with the hoipolloi on the freeway. Fine, but let them pay for it, meaning end the federal subsidies.

Post a Comment

I encourage you to share your own views and experience with me and other readers. How you do that matters, and I'm committed to maintaining a place where readers and commenters can feel safe from adolescent BS. So here's the deal:

There are two kinds of anonymous comments: those by people who have a genuine fear of revenge from the dark side, and those from darksiders just hiding to avoid accountability. You may post comments anonymously, but I reserve the right to treat anonymous comments as found items that belong to me and do with them as I see fit.

If, on the other hand, you're willing to stand by your convictions and post under your own name or a regular handle, your comments belong to you, and I'll edit them only on egregious violations of respect for others.

If this doesn't work for you, I'm sure you'll be happier somewhere else.
