Prior to working in this industry, I trusted market forces to work things out and find the best solutions. However, market forces only work if a few things are present:
1) Those in charge actually have motivation to see the company have long term success. Current money-chasers in charge are only seeking the next metric in their bonus scheme.
2) The government is either all in or all out. The government has and will continue to muddle around in airlines too much for the market to correct inefficiencies and problems.
3) The first requirement of capitalism is that the parties are ethical. Many of our problems across all areas and especially Wall street is the completely failure of ethics in those in position of leadership. Truth is definitely stranger than fiction when you have some idiot on Wall street claiming to do the work of god. There are many things that I can do with an aircraft that are perfectly legal but extremely stupid. It appears that these leaders never learn the difference.
