You want the state telling you where and when you can travel?

No, but I want the state to limit a destructive free-for-all. If some vested
interest in roads was campaigning to build a new motorway do you think
anyone
would listen? Yet for some reason we're supposed to build a new runway at
Heathrow to benefit whome exactly? Oh thats right, Heathrow Plc.

Not just the airport company, but the hundreds of thousands of auxiliary
workers and their employers.

So all these workers will suddenly get a pay rise and better conditions if
a new runway is built? Or perhaps you mean it'll lead to hundreds of thousands
of new jobs?

The latter.

Right, and presumably they'll all be working for Porcine Airways.
