No, you don't understand. It's tax dollars for a paintjob. It's good spending of my hard earned cash. Go corporate welfare!!!
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

rather they paint a plane with my tax dollars, instead of paying for food for some fat lazy welfare for life person.

I mean at least the plane will be around for awhile and not be turned into thick n chunky peanutpoo

What Swager said. It's only "part of a $500,000 promotion for the Alaskan seafood industry."

This week my firm won some sizable business, marketing for a major oil pipeline. Even though the tab is huge, when you break it down, the cost for the actual work is far less than the cost for media placement.

Trust me.... the paint job didn't cost 500k. And I think it looks cool. :cool:

Yup. We're supposed to have faith in capitalism and market forces. The banks should be forking out for this - or it aint worthwhile.

[d'Oh! Edit:]

Government shouldn't be shelling out for airlines. The welfare of its citizens is an entirely different matter.... and debatable.... so scratch my support of "either".
