What I take away from this is that the airline bailout prevented me from getting some sweet, sweet deals on used Boeings last year.

No point crying, though. I may still be able to get good prices on the 737-max. Guy told me those are falling fast.

You know, one of the big takeaways about why we did so much better at rescuing the economy in 2019 versus 2008 is that there was so much less concern over who "deserved" aid or a bailout. Progressives (including me) need to be less concerned with whether companies that don't need money are getting it, and more concerned with whether companies that DO need the money are getting it.
