"O" as you call him is a Socialist and Anarchist! He would like nothing better than to redistribute the wealth that "You" mister airline pilot, mister labor..... are currently making. So, you may want to re-consider that pro, "O", .....pro labor support ......just because Democrats blindly support labor. There is an overall good that transcends occupation.
First off, Socialism and Anarchism are competing terms. You can't be both at the same time so pick one next time. Secondly, wealth distribution can go both directions my friend. During the days of the great "W" presidency, middle class wages were stagnate while those of the highest 1% in earnings saw their income increase by 179%. (source: Congressional Budget Office)
So, unless you are independently wealthy and fly for FedEx for sport, I recommend you look yourself in the mirror and admit to yourself you are labor too......

No argument. Did you read my post. I said ALPA can claim a lot of things but FDX pay rate aint one of them. Which contract got us Delta plus a nickle? Was it the FPA contract or the ALPA contract? Or was it the handbook payrates with their average inflation adjustments?
Anything violate the Obama civility rules in my posts I think not.
