At what cost? Where is the $$ coming from, China? If it was that great of an idea, the airline companies would be footing the bill. There just aren't enough passengers to justify this. It really isn't the Federal Govts job to make life more convenient in Chi Town. Is it?? If it's paid for by the City without any handouts from the Feds it is a different deal, but don't come crying with your hand out when you are bankrupt from reckless spending binges. My life would be more convenient with a snowblower, but I'm not asking anyone to buy me one.
