I must admit, I am secretly enjoying the aggravation this has caused the greedy people around here. Just don’t get so wrapped up in it that you wreck an airplane.....
So as a bottom 1/3 “no” voter... please explain the greed angle.

Actual example, guy loses pension and ESOP. Takes huge pay cuts in the early 2000’s. Wife decides this ain’t the life she was accustomed to and leaves, taking with her half of all assets remaining. Spends the next ten years under BK contract trying to make ends meet. C2012 comes along, finally some gains. 7 years of solid performance shoving every dollar away trying to rebuild, now has two kids in college... and you want to call them GREEDY????

You don’t get moral credit for voting other people’s money, and you certainly don’t get to label people, some of whom have lost millions over the last 20 years and have been desperately trying to rebuild their own retirement... as greedy for not wanting to again take more concessions. You sound like a colossal DB.
