There was ONE ATC in the tower at LGA during last night's crash.
ONE ATC, at LGA!, dealing w ALL air and ground traffic, including a plane filling w a strange smell and no gate to return to.
The Pentagon wants $200B for a vanity war, but our ATC towers are empty.
Budgets are moral documents.

Don't forget that all the cuts to staffing were in the name of cutting all that "wasteful" government spending. Certainly, all the people chancing air travel right now must be so glad the money was pulled from their safety and put towards ICE operations, missiles, and warships.
