Is that some of that new math I've been hearing about?
Walmart versus Target argument. Which stock would you rather own? alpa says it wants to be Target, yet operates like Walmart. In case you missed the inuendo, alpa realizes that they cannot have any more $150/ hour pilots, so they are making a silly attempt to make up the difference in volume which cheapens the model.
