If 67 was the only roadblock maybe I could agree. But I'm using the lost decade as my lesson here of it will cause more harm than good to careers the change doesn't immediately benefit.

You're keeping people at the regionals longer, maybe they get stuck at the bottom and then the recession they finally predict hits and now they are furloughed for 2-3 years. That's the damage 67 can do. Benefits the ones at the top, harms the rest. Pro-67 people keep on acting the lost decade will never happen to the new gens. That the industry will never, " lose money again" ( paraphrasing Doug Parker). Our careers will be sunshine and rainbows. So they are owed those 2 extra years cause theirs sucked. I'm sympathetic to how their careers went, but that's the life isn't fair they love to tell their kids when they complain. And I can't predict how the new guys will go.

It's funny how their attitude is our careers will be so much better. When they were sold the same crap when they were the new people. They are now selling the same BS they were sold.
