That three people downvoted this (so far) really shows how behind we are as a society. Why anyone would dislike calling out a multi-millionaire for flying a private jet unnecessarily is beyond me. We don’t live in the same reality.
You probably didn't mean it, but your comment implies there are also necessary uses for private jets lol
Easy arguement life saving supplies like organ donation or an expert surgeon. Harder argument world leaders like president. I don't agree with that one presidents shouldn't be above us.
Emergency charter are not the same as a "personal jet used by CEO", but I get what you're saying.
The core issue is really that the wasteful uses of this amazing technology (flight) far far far outnumber the useful ones.
Its REDUCE, Reuse, and recycle.
We need to reduce and eliminate wasteful consumption. Not throw useful tools out with the bath water (to butcher an analogy)
