Don't take this the wrong way, but the pilot group is getting a profit sharing bonus from the hard work and support we gave the company, and while, yes, ALPA is responsible for helping get that in our contract, I don't see why dues should taken out.

Personally, I could careless about the $100-$200 at the end of the day I think it is just tasteless. If it's only a couple hundred bucks for each pilot, why not let them take it home to their families.
ALPA, collectively, gets enough money from Delta Pilots, I don't see why they need a bit more.
