So Delta felt the need to cutoff a discount used 13 times, which cost them a 50 million dollar tax break from the state of GA.

I am entertained.

The tax increase, or a failure to renew a tax discount, on jet fuel will hit all airlines fueling in Georgia, not just Delta. Most likely this tax will be passed along to the passengers on Delta as well as any other airline.

The Georgia state budget gets more money, passengers in a seat have less.

The Wikipedia does indeed list Delta as the big dog at ATL.
