Nothing like REWARDING the behavior of the folks who do their darndest to SCREW everyone else. I know of several B777 FO's whose earnings would make my W-2 look like peanuts and I'll bet you have NO idea who works harder. (Hint, it's not a guy sitting in FC and a bunk for 98% of a flight.) I guess because they've learned to "game" the system and hurt their fellow pilots, they should be rewarded handsomely for that. No wonder we're in the shape we are.
