President Donald Trump’s administration said on Friday it was formally withdrawing a plan by his predecessor (Biden) to require airlines to pay passengers cash compensation when U.S. flight disruptions are caused by carriers.
Last month, a group of 18 Democratic senators urged the Trump administration not to drop the compensation plan.
Airlines in the U.S. must refund passengers for canceled flights, but are not required to compensate customers for delays. The European Union, Canada, Brazil and Britain all have airline delay compensation rules. No large U.S. airline currently guarantees cash compensation for significant flight disruption.
USDOT also announced in September it was considering rescinding Biden regulations requiring airlines and ticket agents to disclose service fees alongside airfares.
“Farmers want their livestock dead.”
Seen your comment dozens of times. I cannot fathom how lemmy thinks the rich want us dead when their money is dependent on our labor.
I think there’s an element of misunderstanding how stocks work, thinking they can just trade money around indefinitely with no actual products and value. Seems the rich think the same ATM. 🤦🏻♂️
Don’t look of “Buffett Index”. Or do, and prepare. You do you.
uh, farmers routinely murder their livestock. to death.
If you want eggs you don’t kill all your chickens. I cannot believe this “rich want us dead” belief is actually a thing.
Let me spell it out for the simple minded; The rich are rich because they siphon the profits of our labor. No labor, no rich. I cannot make it more simple.
Lemmy: “They want to kill us all!”
If you want eggs you keep chickens in pens against their wills, control their food and water, and murder them when they are no longer capable of giving their unborn children to you for you to sell for your exclusive benefit. Let me spell it out for the simple minded; your metaphor sucks, and your argument doesn’t hold up to even the slightest scrutiny.
You are also Lemmy. Lemmy isn’t a homogenous entity.
Their money is dependent on labour, not necessarily human labour. Over 100 years of industrial revolution and mass layoffs in the face of new machinery has taught us that.
Why do you think AI and robots are being developed and pushed so hard by the ultra rich?
Found the Russian bot.
Aren’t you cute! Please, do explain yourself.
