- dylan604 3y agoYou're using facts in an emotional argument. When the phrase "doesn't feel" is used, logic goes out the window. Have you not ever had an argument with a significant other?
- Zigurd 3y agoCommercial aviation is about 10X safer than driving per mile. That is a valid comparison if you need to cover a distance and have a choice of driving or flying. You should also add an amount of risk for driving to the airport. Flying is clearly safer than driving for long distances. It is less clear if the choice is driving to a beach two hours away or flying to a different beach two hours away by air.
