There needs to be a zero-tolerance policy on foreign ownership. This would be the doors opening to "cabotage".
Before you know it all airliners here in the USA will be flagged in the Bahamas but operating from US point to US point, and crewed by commuting Filipinos willing to work for pennies on the dollar. Just like the cruise-lines are now. This would be The Airlines for America's wet dream come true. Ah-ahh! Not on my watch!.
I agree. We are all so distracted by scope, that no one seems to notice this issue which is ten times the threat that scope will ever be. The public will support this 100% when they see that it will lead to the happy days of $99 fares again.
