    Georgia lawmakers were set on approving a $50 million tax break for Delta. Then the airline eliminated a discount program for the NRA.http://nyti.ms/2osT813

        Folks. I’ve been preaching for years. Right or left. Pro gun or not. Pro whatever or not. It is time. Beyond time for comprehensive mandatory term limits for all elected officials.

        This is important, but the same thing can be accomplished by voting everyone out in 2018.

        So your answer is instead of make long term meaningful changes you hope to simply vote “them” out in 2018? 🤦🏻‍♂️

        only chance comprehensive mandatory term limits has would require the current crop of politicians to be voted out & replaced with folks who are willing to enact it plenty of issues with overwhelming bipartisan support don't get enacted thanks to how politics currently operate 👋

        Fascinating that these lawmakers care more about NRA money they receive then having @Delta be their hub and employ thousands of people in their state. Go figure.

        It’s not about nra money. It’s about protecting an organization that protects the rights of our citizens.

        It’s absolutely about money they receive from the NRA for their campaigns. What rights have been taken away? I’ll wait

        Nra political contribution for last 20 years =$200 million. Unions last year alone= $1.4 billion. NRA is not about money it is about voters that care about their rights.

        One persons rights are as important as 5 million. They don’t just protect their members. They protect all gun owners.

        Delta should move any offices out of Georgia and into another state. Minneapolis perhaps.

        Northwest Airlines used to be based in Minneapolis. When they merged with Delta they moved to Atlanta. Time to move back to Minnesota.

        Minnesota has a roaring economy & disproportionately large number of Fortune 500 companies despite high taxes, though. Excellent public services, amenities, job market, etc.https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.twincities.com/2017/02/06/minnesota-has-17-fortune-500-companies-unchanged-from-2015/amp/ …
