Did you read my diatribe?

It isn't about negotiating more. It is about working for a real airline that runs every aspect of your business.

Compare the regionals to the companies that sew clothing in Bangladesh. Label says "Levi's", pants look like Levi's, pants have become what Levi's are. Levi's used to be produced in California. It is much cheaper to pay someone in Bangladesh rice and chickens than American dollars in San Francisco. As long as you work for the company in Bangladesh they will keep getting dollars from Levi's inc and pay you in rice and chickens. But chicken and rice is tasty...
