I would suggest to you that any airline (major or regional) would be happy to lose an employee especially a senior pilot and replace them with a more junior one. I would also submit for your consideration the fact that it is not the individual companies that are terribly skewed in management's favor but the entire industry.
I am not a US vs Management guy, but I am a realist. I do believe that an individual should be given a wage that is commensurate with the responsibility of the position. The issue I take with your stated position is that you seem to believe pilots are just another labor group. Not sure if my assumption is correct?
