Maybe he fired him because he was creating dangerous problems like chronic understaffing?
The issue actually goes back to Reagan. The professional air traffic controllers organization (PATCO) went on strike in 1981 because of understaffing, long hours, poor working conditions and low pay.
Reagan fired them all and achieved two results: 1. set the precident that understaffing, long hours, poor working conditions and low pay were just fine for American air safety, and 2. started the long grind of devaluing skilled labor and erosion of workers rights in this country. We are experiencing the cascading consequences today.
You know that's not why.
Stop making excuses for his abuses of power
