Don't worry, everybody. The ultra rich have private airports and aren't at risk like us plebeians.

Private runways might help alleviate the issue, but those aren't common, especially in the areas the rich fly into. ATC control all the skys, not just the commercial airline skys.

Ok. Fair point. I was trying to somewhat illustrate that the ultra rich, who save money on taxes by cutting air traffic controller positions and pay, will still be protected.
