Outside of a pay raise, this TA is clearly NET negative. It's pretty easy to see.
It would have far more impact if he actually read our TA and posted even remotely credible numbers. The pay raises and loss of profit sharing are fixed numbers. Sad he could not take the time to look them up. I do wish however that the 2016 pay raise really was 552 million. That would be a nice 25% raise. Of course he exagerated the profit sharing loss far more.
