      Reagan fired the air traffic controllers without bothering to think that through, and aviation in the USA is still suffering the after-effects of that as the workers that were trained up to fill those gaps now all retire at the same time. I don’t doubt the Republicans would make the same mistake twice, especially given that these ones are far stupider than Reagan’s people.
