I'm not trying to add any further to the dumpster fire this thread had devolved into. I will simply note 3 things: 1. limiting the MBCBP in nonsensical. It's just a tax-deferred account which literally costs zero to the cmpany or to other pilots. Did you mean Min Balance? 2. As I have said before, something like a COLA update for the PBGC, or paying the "catch up" contributions is something I could have gotten behind (and I think a lot of others would have too, unlike the toxic topic of the "Minimum Balance"), and would have been a very reasonalbe ask for those who lost the pension, North or South. I guarantee JB and his ilk would NOT have been satistfied with that though. And 3. It's all irrelevant. Folks are literalluy arguing over spilled milk. It's like arguing over whether Germany should have gone after Stalingrad. No amount of bloviating will change anythinbg at this point.

For heaven's sake, instead of spamming all these threads, can someone PLEASE just start a thread for those who actually want to beat thier chest about this stuff, so the rest of us can just ignore it or mark that thread as "READ".
