It's interesting that so many airline pilots are so far to the right and believe in so strongly that capitalism is the way.

But as soon as their job is threatened, they put their hand out for a government bailout.

If my airline bites the dust or I get furloughed, then that's just life.. if the demand for airline travel is there, I will have a job flying something. Capitalism is survival of the fittest.

If they had used the bailout money to provide free healthcare, when I lose my job at least I would be able to goto the doctor.

Seriously, you can't have it both ways..
