I don’t think this statement is helpful because it effectively downplays the government mismanagement and industry-specific plight of ATC workers by expanding and generalizing the problem.

It’s analogous to this hypothetical conversation:

“XYZ Politician is a corrupt official who needs to be investigated”

“Well actually, corruption is everywhere.”

See how that downplays and changes the subject at hand?

Not everyone is overworked and underpaid like ATC workers. The US government needs to implement real reforms to rectify that situation.
