Think macro and you may see that our nations wealth has been extracted from this country from the inside out. At the behest of corporate america both parties supported
NAFTA, GATT and other fair trade agreements that exported our nations jobs and wealth. Not to mention our welfare and aggressive war campaigns.
The net effect is a shrinking economy masked with Federal Reserve monitory inflation and mainstream media distraction tactics, ie. civil rights issue, gay rights, abortion issues and murder trials.
US Airways is a symptom of corporations, banksters, a corrupt government and a country distracted by the consumer driven bread and circus that is our disconnected reality.

Great post- Although no one has come up with a better system than capitalism,what we have been experiencing is capitalism run a muck without any regulation. And please, this is not a political rant- South Park suggested that we have been given the choice between a turd sandwich or giant douche but that implies that they are both different but equally bad choices. Actually we can have a turd or a turd sandwich. We can take our turd with or without bread- but either way we're eating a turd.
This new contract only looks good because we suffer from some sort of Stockholm syndrome. Naturally capitalism had to overcome barriers and after corporate America took everything away and told us it was our fault we are so grateful for crumbs.
