US Justice Dept is Investigating 4 Major Airlines for Antitrust Violations....It's About Time!

The US Justice Department is investigating American, Delta, Southwest and United Airlines for colluding to keep airfares high, you mean that is illegal? LOL Since 2008 these 4 airlines have merged with smaller airlines and eliminated unprofitable routes and have slowed their growth however, they control 80% of the seats available. By doing this, they can keep the ticket prices high maximizing their profits. And we all know, the airlines are desperate to raise their profits. They don't make nearly enough on the extra gas fees and the luggage fees. NOT! They are making BILLIONS on the luggage fees alone! It's not right. Gas prices are down, they've been down for years now. But we still have to pay for "extra" fuel costs, that the airlines are no longer paying. It's such bullshit!!! Then they cut out the snacks and the free drinks. Everything has a fee attached now. Just awful! Airlines are greedy bastards. I hope the Justice Dept finds the evidence and fines them BILLIONS! It's the right thing to do!!! Damnit! hahahaha
