The government passed a measure in September which provides $15 billion in direct aid and loan guarantees to the airline industry. The bill compensates the industry for losses following the Sept. 11 attacks when airports were shut down for several days and air travel decreased due to public unease. Generally speaking, do you approve or disapprove of compensating the airlines for their losses, using public funds?
