Not only that but the fortune we'd save not incarcerating thousands for pot busts.

Deficit hawks are not into honesty. Otherwise they would stop spending $1billion annually to make high failure $1 paper bills (life expectancy - only 14 months). And would replace a $5 bill with a coin. Then eliminate coins that cannot even buy a flat washer - pennies, nickels, and dimes.

But if they do that, then deficit hawks cannot nickel and dime us to death. Its not about advancing America. It is about empowered deficit hawk who, in reality, increase deficit spending.

Let me guess: someone said Penny for your thoughts; so, you put in your two cents; but, they decided it wasn't worth a plug nickel and dropped a dime on you. Now you're all about change; but, it's easier to coin a phrase than a five dollar bill.

Life is hard, then you die.

I'm surprised NYC doesn't make the list, but I suppose with 3 airports in the NY/NJ area it gets diluted.

I've been to 4 of those airports. But never stepped outside at O'Hare.

I have never been, and hope to never be, in any of those airports.

I've been to the 3 in the US as layovers, and Heathrow for an overnight layover, so I got to do a bit of touristy stuff.

NYC's airports operated by the NY/NJ Port Authority did 132 million passengers in 2017.

JFK did something under 60 million. Newark did something over 40 million. Laguardia did a paltry 2+ million. That last one was a surprisingly low number.

60 + 40 + 2 = 102, where's the other 30?

I was surprised Chigo didn't make it.
