Sad, but it is a possibility.
I haven't sent anything to the regionals in over 2 years due to thinking exactly what you said. Plus, it would be more than a 50% pay-cut for me to go back to a regional FO and financially there is no way I could afford to do that with our young family. Now when this ATP mins comes into effect and they "hopefully" raise their pay, then I will think about them again. (yea I know, fat chance)
