While I agree with Captain Leber's sentiment I can not agree with his conclusions. I would offer as direct rebuttal my post located here.

The fight that most of us want to have is not a fight that can be won in Section 6 negotiations. It is a fight to change the framework from within which we negotiate all future contracts and how those contracts are protected from legal maneuvering by unethical managers. It will take a legislative solution to parts of the RLA and BK code amongst others. That is a fight I'm very willing to fight, just as soon as I get their boot off my throat. We must not only have the willingness to fight, but the capacity.
