It's easy to criticize when you enjoy liberal ideas as Union protection and contracts, easy to criticize when US DOD paid for you flight training and pays your "government entitlement" - pension from USAF.
Why are pilots liberal when it comes to protecting their interest and run to unions, but criticize others for doing the same.
You want to be true republican, give up your pension from DOD, vote unions down and upgrade and get paid based on merit, kiss @$$, networking, buddy system, just like any other corporate employees. Or better start your own airlines and shows us how it's done the republican way. Join none union airlines like JB, VA, oh wait, they... Oh no! The Liberals are taking over! I suggest you stock more of none perishable goods, guns and ammunition in your bunker, because there is no hope ;-)
The f....ing liberals ruined the economy, stocks are at the highest they have ever been, the fuel is at $30 a barrel, real estates is up to 2006 prices, car dealers are selling cars above MSRP, the interest rates are going up, people getting jobs, spending money on iPads, TVs, houses, shopping malls are full of shoppers!!
Damned liberals! It was so good in 2008, when republican were running the country! You were able to by home for a price of VCR, turn you old junk and get new BMW for 0%, gas was at $4 per gallon, empty shopping malls- no crouds like today, your 401K account had opportunity for growth and your contributions didn't make a dent! It was so good, all those deregulations introduced in 2000-2007 made opportunities for wealth growth in energy sector like Enron, housing market and loans,! It was a true renaissance in republican American business.
