Good day.
I support these guys. They are doing what needs to be done on the Express level to reach through the shell game and put leverage on those who control the market.

Their effort is doomed before it begins and I am in no way saying they should go forward, I'm saying they have a moral (if not legal) right to withdraw their services whenever they damned well please.

It would make a great debate in a Constitutional Law class. Wonder if anyone has ever challenged the RLA on the basis of the 13th Amendment.
