Why did Pocahontas prevent the jet blue - spirit merger in 2022?

Why should the government bail out an airline?

They do it repeatedly

The White House found all the videos on the internet of the cultural impact of Spirit Airlines and decided to let it fail.

Bailing out Spirit is the airline equivalent of bailing out Shaniqua for a lifetime of bad decisions.

Interestingly, the largest corporate airline chain to NOT have a plane crash since they took the field in 1992.

Airlines got billions after 9/11 and during COVID.

“Repeatedly?” I don’t know if that’s the exact adverb I’d choose in that scenario, personally. Hell I may’ve used “a handful of times” even. Unless by “repeatedly” you mean “irregularly,” seems like that was an exaggeration, a quite noticeable one.

They got multi billion dollar bailouts at least twice within 20 years

Why would it get bailed out?

Bro c’mon, twice in 20 years doesn’t quite qualify as “repeatedly.”
