A Primer on the FAA Shutdown

If you aren’t reading Ezra Klein and his padawan Dylan Matthews over at the Washington Post, you are missing the single best source about policy, politics, and governance. Wonkbook is the single best thing that shows up in my RSS Monday through Friday.

I don’t have a lot to add to this excellent, “Everything you need to know about the FAA shutdown in one post“. Here’s Consumerist’s take on how airlines are capturing the surplus revenue (and maybe giving it back). Here’s Weigel on frustration that Democrats didn’t extract FAA funding as a concession in the debt ceiling negotiations.
