> We should regulate the regulators, bc I don't trust them either. We should have oversight, and we do, but it's hard to pick a worse example of bad regulation (or a better example of good regulation) than the FAA. Air travel safety is extraordinary.

  Even with the two crashes air travel was still the safest form of travel those years (as it is every year, it has quite the buffer actually). This kind of fear mongering doesn't help anything. If airplanes were invented today people like you would have had them outlawed after the first accident.
