Point taken. Yes, admittedly my numbers were a complete WAG. But the idea is valid. Over the last decades, managements and BODs have routinely enriched themselves on the backs of employees and at the expense of consumers. And with what to show for it? American businesses, especially the airlines, are weaker than their foreign counterparts and are losing relevance in the world economy every day.
