The irony is that you can walk over to the GA Terminal and Charter anything you want without have to be grouped.

The local FSDO and the FAA Security division used to be in charge.

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

Yes. Fear is their greatest ally and the Lemmings can't be critical thinkers.

Worse!
You have to fend for yourself and be responsible for your own actions.

Oh wait, that must have been a dream I had. In our current reality; The Federal government is here to oversee all of your actions, protect you from everything, find someone/thing to blame everything on that you do or had done to you, and ensure you understand that the Federal government and politicians know all and will solve all things for you. Just sit back and blindly believe and do what they say. Its all good in the the new Federal government's U.S.A. (Utopia States of America). Right?
