Fair enough.  I recline when I need to, and I do frequently look to see if the person behind me is.  Unlike some bloggers and the author of that article, I recognize that it is an imposition on the person behind me.

Life isn't only about rights.  You also have the right to come onto a plane smelling like a sewer, and then asking the guy next to you if he'd pay five bucks for you to put on deodorant (10 bucks for good smelling deodorant).  And the writer's precious Coase theorem would apply just as much.
And you guys thought you were upset...

A looooooooooong time ago, there was a  diet pill on the market called: AYDES.
A few years later losing weight because of Aydes was no longer a good idea.   ;D
I don't remember what they changed their name to.
My favorite cause: cssy.org

http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nba/hawks/2014/09/07/bruce-levenson-racist-email-atlanta-owner-sell-team/15241591/

What's pshat? Who self-reports that "hello, I am racist, so therefore I agree I shouldn't own a basketball team." If he sees that racism is so bad, why is he racist?

Let's theorize that he just wants to sell the team. But if you put your team on the market for no reason, people query whats wrong with it.  So you need a reason. So he remembers that he is racist.
