I had the pleasure of flying the friendly skies of Southwest Airlines this past week, and am puzzled by a few things. We were on "high alert", yet Southwest did not ask to see my driver's license when getting my boarding pass or checking my luggage. There was also a hepatitis outbreak stemming out from Las Vegas (where Southwest stopped), yet there was not covering of the flight attendants' hands nor was or is there any requirement for filthy baby diapers to be covered with plastic bags, and these were openly displayed in the restrooms with no coverings whatsoever. Yet the "little people" such as you and I are required to wear seatbelts and pick up our dog poop with plastic bags on the sidewalks. My guess is because we do not generate the revenue Las Vegas does, we simply do not count. With celebrities now using Southwest, we know they control this country regardless who gets killed.
Southwest also permitted me to carry a cigarette lighter onboard, and when questioned about it, they said the TSA said it is "ok now". But I do see another plane was hijacked elsewhere, so I guess the TSA knew we were ok.
Southwest is now spewing jet fuels into our air and water supplies, yet I'm puzzled why flight fares have not increased, yet us little guys' gas for our cars to get to work have skyrocketed. But I guess we don't generate the revenue Las Vegas does, although we are the fools that continue to go there.
In many communities throughout the nation, our electric and heating power is now being calibrated so only a few breakers work in our homes at a time, yet the Las Vegas beacons are shining as bright as ever. And Southwest has the audacity to leave "Inside/Outside" magazines around boasting concerns for the environment and the Southwest states - hypocracy at it's best.
But as always, our government has our best interests at heart.
Thank you, Southwest, for refusing to let me speak with a Supervisor upon our return trip, and for damaging my luggage but refusing to address the issue. Thank you for damaging the contents of my luggage, although you refused to address the issue. Thank you, Southwest, for making that flight our last flight, and thank you, TSA, for ensuring our safety in the skies and keeping our air and water safe, warm and dry.
But we did arrive on time which was great.
