Ultimately, I think it's reasonable for an airline to expect you to live where you work. Every other job in America already does, why should pilots be different?
If that was true we'd have no business class!? My point is as a "collective" group, we should be outraged at the smoke and mirrors the media sets up to entice the gov't agencies to even question our safety (due to fatigue) record when they could better spend time and energy trying to fix industries that would actually save lives. Like enforcing driving as a "privilege" not a "right!? Pilots have been commuting for years, we're not "typically" having a problem with safety because of it!
