Yes, but something **else** is going on under the radar here, Liz.

What Willie posted contained an almost offhand reference to the state of Pennsylvania bailing out US Air.

Well, that's just how the press has been playing it down here; that the bailout of US Air by **Alabama** is just a normal, natural sidenote to daily business as usual.

But two states bailing out the same company for multiple-millions, with no story in either state mentioning that **other** states were also bailing out US Air??

And this isn't even the tiniest part of the **federal** bailout of the airlines. This is all local state money.

Makes ya wanna say hmmm...

Perhaps we might more aptly dub these outrageous maneuvers signs of the Neo-Political/Industrial Complex.
