This I don't get. It seems pretty clear.
These travel-related perks cost money, so the payer keeps the perks.
If the company finds it necessary to let employees use the perks in order to attract talent, great, but they're under no obligation to do so otherwise.
Government employees should not get any of those perks. THAT'S MY MONEY! I paid for those perks, and non-wage inducements are already significant for government workers.
Sure, I know constant business travel is a difficult way to earn a living, but all jobs suck one way or another.
