Flying High on Private Enterprise

To enhance U.S. air safety, turn air traffic control into a business. In a classic tale of the fox guarding the henhouse, U.S. air traffic control is a socialist relic. Its inefficiency was spotlighted by the collapse at Newark International. The libertarian thinkers at Mises Institute argue for privatization as the remedy. Only through embracing profit-seeking business principles can we transform this aerial chaos into peace—an argument bound to ruffle feathers, or should I say, shake wings. Change is afoot in the clouds, meine Freunde.
