Okay, I’ve commented recently about air fares and the fact that the only way I’d fly across country would be in First Class, despite the hefty premium. But get this: Justice Alito claimed that his private jet ride to Alaska, paid for by a Republican fat cat, cost less than a commercial flight would. Obviously, Alito does not ever fly commercial, or he’d know. The seat was vacant, he says, so he essentially got to ride for free. Yeah, that seat was vacant because it was reserved for him!
