Is your suitcase causing the recession?

We all remember how Obama has opened our eyes to the evils of ATMs.

It seems that the progressives in the great state of California have identified another evil invention we should rise up and destroy, wheeled luggage.

The rolling revolution in suitcases is idling those airline terminal luggage carts — costing airports and cart rental companies millions of dollars in lost revenue.

The demand for airport luggage carts, which has been steadily declining with the growing popularity of wheeled luggage, has dropped further now that airline baggage fees are forcing passengers to travel lighter.

Those evil suitcase corporations want to push luggage cart vendors and skycaps off the cliff.

Wait, is it there fault?

At Los Angeles International Airport cart rentals once provided at least $2.75 million in annual revenue. Now, the airport is losing nearly $1 million a year under a deal that obligates it to provide free carts to foreign travelers.

Oops, it seems the problem is that the only people who use the carts are the ones who get them for free.

Imagine that.

If this keeps up Democrats will be blaming the internet for teachers being out of work.
