No you are right. Perhaps you should just keep working cheaper than the other guy, just for the love of flying. After all who really needs to make a reasonable return on the inveestment in an aviation career.
With your perception of reality you have reached the pinnacle of your career, congratulations.
You will be happy looking forward to a career of concessionary contracts as the current regional du-jour is next years overpriced carrier ala Comair. It doesn't matter if you get an industry leading contract or keep your low rates, because in the next contract cycle if you currently have the contract then you are too expensive.
