federal grant of $900,000 to help United Airlines offset operational costs

Why are taxpayers footing the bill for United?

Is there a need for daily service to S.F.??? I thought Palmdale is a small city?

Well, the mayor and officials there better go on business trips to San Francisco to justify having the plane service.

Nancy Pelosi needs an airport to land at that isn't military, isn't big like the airports in the Bay area, but is still big enough to handle "Air Force 3".

Probably the gays in charge of San Francisco wanted the Gay Friendly Airline to enable them to fly back and forth for their Gay adventures, er business adventures.

With the hassles at airports, many people are now driving instead flying these N/S routes.

Why should taxpayers support United and whoever wants this travel.

Okay, Palmdale Airport isn't too far away from us. I haven't been to SF since HS. I need leads for a cheap, clean motel room, etc. We'd like to stay at least 2 days if we can afford it.
