Why are foreign pilots getting jobs in the United States while my U.S. born brothers and sisters are furloughed and on the streets.
Foreign pilots have nothing to do with furloughs. The seniority system does. If you're (un)fortunate to be on the bottom of some seniority list, and the company furloughs, getting furloughed has nothing to do with foreign pilots, but rather the furloughee's date of hire.
In other words... the original poster's anger is misplaced.
