ring peak periods.Coburn claimed the FAA has failed to make
"smart cuts" to avoid this outcome. He suggested the agency could reduce
spending on "consultants, supplies and travel" by 15 percent, saving $105
million. He also claimed the agency could save much more than that
by trimming a grant program for airport improvements.Huerta said Thursday
the furloughs were necessary.Likewise, the agency sees no way around closing
149 air traffic control towers at small airports that are currently operated
under contract for the FAA, Huerta told the Senate Appropriations Committee's
transportation subcommittee. The tower closings have been delayed until
June 15.The furloughs and tower closings were designed "to minimize impacts
on the maximum number of travelers," he said. But he acknowledged, "We're
forced to choose between very unattractive options."Another Republican lawmaker
accused the White House of deliberately trying to upset the public."They
want to cause the most pain to the American people out there
so they will put pressure on Congress to back away from sequestration
(spending cuts)," Rep. Bill Shuster of Pennsylvania told a transportation
gathering hosted by the National Journal news magazine. Shuster chairs the
House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee."I believe he (President
Barack Obama) is instructing his agencies to do things that inflict the
most pain on the most people. This should be laid right at
the president's fee
oth more open-minded and less riled up.
This is the economic concept of "loss aversion," which, in simple terms,
means we hate to lose. Recognizing how much we hate to lose,
we need to take actions to minimize the damage we do attempting
to win at all costs. Smooth things over with this trick: The
Best Way To Resolve An Argument.5. Trying to mind-reador expecting your
partner to do so. This one should be obvious, and yet again,
we all assume our spouse knows we need a hug (or a
cocktail) after a bad day at the office or figure that he'll
wash the car on his way past the car wash because it's
so obviously dirty. The solution: the economic principle of transparency.
Give your spouse the information he or she needs, rather than expecting
him to know the unknowable. Information is the grease that keeps your
little economy functioning.6. Putting off kind gestures. We think we'll
give him that well-deserved back rub, or watch the kids so she
can get out the door for a child-free afternoon, but then we
flake. The time never seems right. The to-do list remains too long.
We think we're great spouses but sometimes we're just not. The best
solution to our procrastination is to devise something economists call "commitment
devices"ways to force ourselves to commit to things. Send your husband a
text promising a back rub and you sort of have to do
it. Arrange a personal training session for your wife and the kids
are all yours for the afternoon.7
