Honestly, I wonder how long til we have to close down an airport because staff just stops showing up entirely. I feel like absenteeism has to have gone exponential.
With the expense of flights, I also do think a lot about whether or not this disproportionately affects demographics who were more likely to have voted for Trump.
Wealthy people will be less affected. They will get a different flight and just charge it. Poorer people will need to wait for a refund or insurance to pay to get an alternative.
I would also expect that the workers in states with less social benefits are more likely to have the staff not show up as they have to earn money elsewhere.
Gorsh, if only the FAA had more employees. Did the FAA use to have more employees? What happened to them? /sarcasm

Wait…you think the vast majority of trump voters are wealthy?
Uhhhhhh…I don’t even know how to respond to that without feeling like I’m talking down to you.

It can disproportionately affect them without most of them being wealthy.
You don’t think they will find a way to blame Biden?
