Sprint Airlines imposed $45 fee per carry-on.

If you don't travel frequently, you probably don't really care. Skip this post.

As the USA Today reports, Sprint Airlines is proposing a $45 fee per carry on bag. When I used to travel frequently, I made a blog post that spoke about the checked bag fees, that accurately predicted the future.

The purpose of me noting this is more because of the government getting involved and threatening to pass legislation to block this additional fee. Really? Do we need the government to protect us from capitalism and debating issues like this. Good grief - this is seriously misdirected outrage.

Get back to encouraging job growth by offering massive incentives to small businesses to hire people.
