    So mark cuban and rich people like him should pay more taxes if he wants to help out the American people. Also airlines don't need bailout as they are not really essential service. As for air delivery, UPS, Fedex, DHL, Prime Air, etc are already getting help because they are essential for delivery of goods. Instead we should save the money from giving the airlines to make our healthcare better, and give us another round of stimulus checks or more. Unemployment benefits are also a green light. But the problem is giving airline employees pay. It's a double edged sword but I guess another stimulus check would be helpful, and so would be more unemployment benefits.

People have to pay rent, car payments, bills for gas, water, and electricity, and hospital bills, insurance. However u have to account that people have a better chance of making livable income via the college route rather than investing.

The entire airline can rehire and train new employees at a standard rate of $15.00 an hour.

    Retired airline EVP... If the lockdown would have been fixed at two weeks as planned instead of six months, the industry may have has a reasonable chance of recovery. At this point, with such low load factors and fewer flights, airline carriers are going to have to make very difficult changes or some may go out of business entirely. The constant media barrage of fear has pretty much destroyed an extremely vital and essential part of our economy. Once the seeds of fear have been firmly planted in the minds of the public, it may require decades if ever to recover. In my view, the entire affair has been handled very poorly. President Trump is not to blame. It is career bureaucrats and so-called "experts" who brought this nation to its knees without firing a shot. Our constitutional rights and freedoms have been trampled upon, and that should worry each and every one of us. Congress has no choice but provide a modicum of support to the airline industry. If they fail. the American economy and our way of life simply cannot continue.

    Cuban's idea is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. Can you imagine the shortages that would happen when people try to buy $4k of necessities before their money runs out? It does nothing to help the average American much and is mostly just going to boost earnings for corporations for a quarter.

  • @niyanthkanakasabapathy5890

    They talk about 25 billion dollars like it’s nothing while thousands of Americans wonder if they can have money for there next meal or for taxes and bills. Help the people not big corporations with billions of dollars to fall back on. When you give the rich money they don’t help others they just stuff there pockets with it

    No pity for these greedy corporations. I had a flight scheduled and due to corona I wont be able to travel.

    The airlines are essential for the recovery of the US economy. Airlines provide transportation for businesses and vacations which boost the GDP. The government has to bail out the airlines again if they want a fast recovery. For those of you who are complaining not to bail out the airlines, remember this.. Your ticket prices will triple or quadruple when the airlines are bankrupt and are providing less flights. Tickets are cheap because there are abundant of flights and competition to lure customers. Just wait until you need to fly somewhere and pay $2,000 for a ticket when it was only $500 before. Maybe you will learn your lesson then.

    Unless some states get rid of the annoying 2 week self isolation upon arrival requirement and the airlines get rid of the ridiculous mandatory mask wearing that does nothing since people aren't 6 ft apart, airlines won't be able to recovery anytime soon. There are too many restrictions and inconveniences that make travel not worth it right now. Even though most airlines have finally gotten rid of the ridiculous change/cancellation fees, flying still isn't worth it right now. Especially since there's some international places re-closing their borders because of spikes.
