North American Airlines Have It All Wrong

This is what I think of airport boarding lines:

If I don’t have a frontish seat, I wait until everyone’s on. You go ahead and stand in line for 15 minutes, pal.
And some version of this always comes next, right?:
Attention Passengers: We’re only letting 8 more overhead bags on, then we will check the rest at gate…”
Why in the world would airlines not CHARGE to take a carry on bag? This would speed up flight boarding, people defending their bag size when counter agents tell people its too big, and the general “me first” mentality that, quite frankly, turns me off from airline travel in general. Just $5 when you buy your ticket would make a difference. They could make more money! At least experiment with it or something. Geesh.
