Now airlines can charge up the ass and they are fashion police? Please.

Problem with that is that if you cause enough of an upstir (or even if you don't, actually), the airlines can kick you off and refuse to take you anywhere for causing a commotion.
The airlines (as things stand) pretty much have free reign in selecting who they'll fly and who they won't... and there's not a whole lot of recourse available for anyone pushed aside by the system.
I know one guy (a bit obnoxious, I'll give you) who was had his share of drinks on his flight, and then fell asleep to wake up an hour and a half later to ask the stewardess for another drink only to be told "I think you've had enough." He was a bit upset, and expressed himself thusly...
When he landed and went to the terminal for his connecting flight, he found that he airline had refused him transport for the remainder of his trip... he had to find and book with another airline - but only after spending a night in the connecting city - and, from what I hear, he was lucky he was able to find another that would take him - the "no fly list" is not a myth.
