Great idea Randy, you must be a Harvard grad. Hey, I know a lot of guys that smoke an occasional cigar. Do you think this would be a good idea? Charge the occasional smoker as much as the regular 2 packs a day people. That way you could make up the revenue you could have got to cover health programs. The possibilities are endless on this idea. Don’t forget about alcohol taxes, to make the occasional sipper to pay a bigger share.

It seem as though not many are paying attention to the publish date of the article.

Yes, "Zoomer" who runs the website does spoofs for the entire day of 4/1.

Yes you all have been had....

So its a penalty for NOT buying something. Same logic used in BO care.

Oh good grief. Pilots will pad their logbooks and who is going to go poring over them to prove you didn’t meet the minimum? Stupid, stupid, stupid.

and how is this going to work for those who own their planes??? Federal morons will be forced to take their word for the number of hours flown per year.
The FAA can sit on it and spin. Obammy boy can suck the big one.
