Who cares, LCC's will dominate the market and legacies are going to be fat, bloated and sinking in the next decade or so. Today's flavor of the week is usually tomorrow's tragedy. Lcc's are going to bring their pay up to the legacies, or atleast pretty damn close. Add in a lot of growth, which will add to QOL in the long run. No snooty self proclaimed super pilots who think they are aviation gods, but make the same mistakes as everybody else and complain about light chop all the time.
You can keep your degrees. Just because this braindead society tells you to spend tens of thousands of dollars and countless hours on something you'll get little to no use out of in the real world, doesn't mean you have to listen.
