My response:
I'm not a first class flier, just someone who feels the need to point out the ridiculousness of your diatribe. The best part is that you used Naomi Campbell and a third world airline as examples to strengthen your "argument." Here's the deal...THEY PAID FOR THE PRIVILEGES. Sounds like someone didn't do so well in economics. If you didn't realize this, we live in a free market society. That's right, comrade, we actually get to choose how to spend our money, and most companies even have the privilege of offering different levels of service at multiple price points! I look forward to your next column, let me guess..."The proper way to look disapprovingly upon luxury car owners?" Or maybe "I can't see the game from up here: Why the NBA should give me free courtside seats." Tell the sans-culottes "hi" for me.
