VP Biden: La Guardia "A third world country airport- I'm not joking"

Last week, Vice Presdient Joseph Biden pointed to La Guardia as a fine example of "third world country..." airport.  He is right.  Not only that VP Biden is right about La Guardia , but he might as well point the finger at JFK and Newark and hundreds of other airports around the U.S.

The travesty is that travelers have been paying big taxes for so many years which the FAA levies.  It is a bewildering assortment of taxes, user fees, 9-11 fees and best of all "Passenger Facility Charge" aka PFC (Government loves acronyms).
Here's the explanation from the FAA about the "PFC":

The Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) Program allows the collection of PFC fees up to $4.50 for every boarded passenger at commercial airports controlled by public agencies. Airports use these fees to fund FAA-approved projects that enhance safety, security, or capacity; reduce noise; or increase air carrier competition.

The U.S. has one of  the highest tax rates in the world.  The FAA and most Airport Authorities are doing virtually nothing with these funds.  As a result, many of our airports are outdated, overcrowded and just plain bad.
