No, but this is to my point. The current airlines in the United States are trash and have been getting worse throughout my lifetime.
I don’t necessarily believe deregulation is the answer, I just don’t buy that this particular type of “trust” would be a problem for the market these days. Vertically integrated companies are successful because they are efficient and it seems silly to punish companies for achieving this
- mulmen 6y agoThat depends on your definition of "success". You have identified why vertically integrated companies are successful in terms of profitability. That does not in any way imply they provide a higher level of service, which is my point. What is it specifically about airlines that are "trash" today? How was it better in the past?
