摘要: |
These seminar comments concern the economic and consumer impacts of airports. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has identified the lack of airport runways as a national crisis. The business community feels that one of the best ways to protect our economy is to protect our airports, because airports across the country serve as regional economic engines that drive local prosperity in good times and, in bad times, act as a flu shot against down-turning economies. Chicago's airport system employs directly and indirectly almost a half million people and is the region's primary economic engine, generating $35 billion on an annual basis. |
