You gotta be a JB koolaider or a new-hire
I could only find one operator of the 170 (which is smaller than the 190) and it paying slightly less than JB, $85 vs $77 capt 10yr; $51 vs $37 FO 10 yr.
Even if you discount the "fact" (which isn't one till it happens

) that you would not be a 10 year FO at JB, your still looking at less than $100 to fly a 737-100 replacement
as captain.
"You are what you earn.....", set the bar low enough and, guess what?? someone will set it lower

".......we have to compete."
