I hate when businesses try to make money

  > I hate when businesses try to make money who will think of the airline mega-corps and their insanely rich backers that capitalized such a locked-down already-for-profit industry in a country that supports near monopolies on infrastructural services? they're the ones I worry about most.

    Airlines aren't exactly known for fabulous margins. I get your point, and I never feel bad for a corporation, but I think airlines are probably one of the few sectors with a hypercompetitive market, tons of options, and pretty low margins. they have basically 0 monopoly, so they compete very harshly on prices and services. Also, I'm not sure who the insanely rich backers would be considering airlines usually aren't exactly family empires and have pretty mediocre investment returns
