It’s no wonder airlines are hurting

Why is the government more profitable than a private company? I was looking at the airfare for a flight when I noticed that, of the $499 price, the government got $135. The airline is lucky to get a 3 percent profit while the government gets a 27 percent profit. The government has no costs yet makes all the profit. That is crazy.
