That argument is easily quelled w/ common sense.
If your company isn't profitable while paying the employees 40% less than other companies that are turning a profit, then labor costs obviously aren't the problem.
Also, pilot (and flight attendants) are DIRECT labor. Mgt labor is indirect. The more direct labor you lose (due to attrition), the more directly your product is affected. More thought should be put into the # of VPs we seem to have (and their salaries).
