This is my feeling as well. Before I was furloughed the majority of people I flew with had the "I was furloughed, so get over it attitude". They were adamantly against any kind of relief to save jobs. Including the .5%. Totally absurd, folks making hundreds of thousands dollars aren't willing to give up .5%.
This pilot group is really 3 or 4 groups. LAA. LUS/AWA and anybody new. Least important by far is "new".

wouldn't Marxism being the state owned the airlines, pays all pilots, rampers, gate agents and Executives the same amount, and seniority would not be used for bidding?
or we could go the other way and institute things like each individual bargaining for themselves, good schedules awarded to those who are in cahoots with management. And pilots who get too expensive are the ones who get furloughed when times are tough.
it’s a safety net for those who got kicked to the curb, stop acting like it’s the end of the world

more than 90% of the pilots at each of those 2 airlines voted in favor of a 1% assessment to fund healthcare for furloughs.
Atooraya seems to think it is socialism/Marxism to asses .5% of AA pilots pay to fund healthcare for their furloughs.

All I’m saying is get another job furloughed pilots. Our economy provides a ton of new jobs for you. I worked hard for my seniority here at American and I don’t need communist ideals like ALPA to siphon off my hard earned money to pay for others. That is literally socialism.
