I seriously hope you're joking about this. How in the world will the US be able to keep up with the rising demand for air travel if there is a huge gap in the pilot pool? Current cabotage rules will be tossed out the window to make up for the lack of reliable US transportation, and the like of Virgin America and a number of other foreign competitors will be chomping at the bit to get into this market. You thought wages were bad now, wait 8 years.
