  1. $43 million to handle planes flying empty. Pandemic capitalist socialism is more irrational than Stalin's worst 5 year plan.

  2. Weird all those thrifty white people that used to fly didn't demand KCI save for a rainy day instead of blowing so much federal free money on a shiny new terminal nobody needs.

  3. In addition to austerity measures the aviation department has about $145 million in unrestricted cash, or about 580 days cash on hand. The aviation finances are well managed. and Kathryn Shields stated as such. KCMO finances as a whole, not so much so...

    2. "unrestricted cash" is an accounting term; look it up prior to commenting so you don't look so ignorant.
