I would say a natural product of capitalism is supply and demand. |
Incentives: Higher quality employees (less risk of an accident), fewer bogus sick calls, less turnover and attrition, higher productivity, lower training costs, including retraining pilots who don't care about the quality of the work they do, as well as training new pilots, due to attrition, etc.
By the way, a natural product of capitalism is supply and demand. But, just because I don't want to be a victim of that fact, doesn't make me a communist, or socialist, or whatever right-wing slanted propaganda word is being recklessly and incorrectly thrown around by Fox News these days.
