It has nothing to do with caring or not caring about regional employees. While I am disappointed at United's decision, ExpressJet was just another vendor who is replaceable. Just like you decide to switch from Bob's Plumbing Service to Steve's Plumbing Service for a lower cost (or whatever metric United wanted). I get people choosing to make a regional a career but this is a potential pitfall of that choice (or lack of a choice for some).
