That is exactly the opinion we expect to hear from you. Lets concede to other airports business. It is a give up on economic and safety attitude for your own personal agenda.

If that was the attitude of our business leaders, and politicians than there certainly would be zero hope for this state.

Instead of a lets make RI more safe, and prosperous you have the throw in the towel approach. Numbers can be used in many different ways to distort public opinion. I would bet that the airports across the nation have seen lower numbers due to the recession.

As the economy rebounds TF Green can either be ready for the numbers to increase and stay competitive, or it can take your approach.

If you look at the area surround Winslow Fields you will see how many homes are gone. It would be a waste not to finish the job and go forth with the project. You will never see homes built there again.

The airport expansion is holding up progress within the city. Once ground is broken if you will than you will see real economic improvement. This is one project that can really make a difference in our city and state.

Instead of encouraging people to use other airports and spend money elsewhere as you suggest, lets bring that business to Warwick. If not, you will see the remaining tax payers of the city take on the economic burden.

Again, the main reason for the expansion is safety! Secondly, the economic benefits.

The airport does have to be mindful of the environment. But, lets be honest to the extent. With all the oil spills across the globe, and threat of global warming has that stopped the world's economies from using oil? Of course the answer is no. Airports are going to continue to operate.
