And another thing while you've got me p!ssed off. Why is it a free market attitude is a "kool aid drinker" but all of you communists who toe the union line are not? Name a successful ALPA airline. You can't. Oh wait, Mesa, but everyone loves to crucify them for not demanding 18 days off a month and $75k starting FO pay.

With executives coming from so many different universities, personal backgrounds, and work experience, why is it that NONE OF THEM CAN MAKE AN ALPA AIRLINE PROFITABLE? Are they all idiots? Or is it the monolithic ALPA that demands impossible wages, work rules and scope? ALPA's motto should be "everyone's stupid but me!" You communists are the cool-aid drinkers.

I'll ask you an easier question. Name a profitable union INDUSTRY! You can't. Unions may have had a place when 12 year old kids were working 80 hours a week in coal mines but no more.

If blacksmiths had a union we'd still be riding horses to work.

America gives you the opportunity to seek any other career you wish, or even another employer who may pay you more to fly. Go find them, don't kill Delta and take tens of thousands of Delta and Regional jobs with you.
