He didn't ban travel from China, he restricted entry rules, which is why people with the virus got in. But don't let facts get in the way of you sucking down some orange jizz.
Sooo, he was racist, just not racist enough?
This racism meme has to stop. The Chinese can fuck off.

He was stupid as usual. Not sure how his racism played into it.

Your biz is transportation? Did you sell your biz?
I provide contract workers to companies or private individuals. Exxon, General Dynamics, Coca Cola and Valero are not transportation companies. They are also some of my largest clients.
Try again.

Maybe. But we don’t usually send pilots to the US government. They tend to use military pilots.

I know you are stupid but I’m not talking about your clients. I’m talking about the biz you own. The TRANSPORTATION biz you own.
Did you sell it?

That’s what I am talking about tiny. I don’t provide transportation. I provide highly trained short term contract employees.
No I haven’t sold it. Don’t plan to.

Oh good grief you are a fat whiny twat. You own a company that works to fly people from one place to the other, just because you are too poor to own a plane doesn’t mean you don’t own a transportation company.

Anyone who calls chinese virus racist, should be laughed at, mocked and ridiculed.
The entire world should leave the bill for this global catastrophe with the Chinese government.
And the total cost of this will be staggering.
Either they pay it, or face the consequences.

Why doesn’t the IRS classify us as a transportation company?

You fly. Carriers don't just take people, they take cargo, freight, mail etc. To fly is to transport from point A to point B.
Why wouldn't the IRS classify you as a transportation company? :? Is there a certain set of criteria which must be met, or which better describe your company?

Again. I provide highly trained contract employees. Ask the IRS why they don’t classify my company as transportation.

We depend on our pilots, up here. Piloting is life or death; every pilot is Balto, every day.
It doesn't make sense not to classify you as a transporter ... is the key 'contracting'?

My company is classified the same as Adecco, Robert Half, Account Temps, etc.
All provide short term contract workers when a client needs additional staffing. Some may be hired full time by the company they are assigned to at some point. When that happens I get a large payment just as the other contracting companies do.

So you're a temp service for pilots, not an actual carrier. Oh! Ok. That's a niche need. It's brilliant. It's also something I can't wrap my head around. Do you hire mostly veterans? Do your contractors get hired away often? Where is the greatest need?

My company provides pilots to companies and individual plane owners. When their “regular” pilots need vacation or recurrent training these companies/individuals come to us to supply pilots. We may have someone work for them for a day or two, a week, or even a few months.
I have a few pilots that are full time employees now. Most though are not employees and I work with them on a 1099 basis. Most don’t want to be full time employees and only want to fly a few trips a month.
Some are veterans but most are like myself and never served. Many of the veterans go to the airlines.
The greatest need is in Asia. We send folks there all the time. The next biggest sector is oil and gas. Although that might be because of my contacts there and having flown for 7 years as a corporate pilot for an oil company.

Asia has 3 billion people. Why aren't they flying? (Oil and gas is different. Remote areas are remote for a reason.)

I have no clue why more Asians aren’t flying.
I do know that many Asians and Asian companies prefer Western pilots. There are plenty of stories of Asian captains crashing their planes while the co-pilots sit on their hands and say nothing. Further Asian pilots tend to over rely on automation and technology vs their own flying skills.
