Bucking Bar, I haven't seen or heard of anybody suggesting they "despise" anybody making over $100,000 a year (maybe the commentators on whichever new channel you watch?). Just frustration about the growing gap between the haves and have-nots.
The frustration with well-paid management as you are left fighitng over the scraps seems like a pretty clear parallel with the Occupy Wall Street crowd. This isn't an insult, just an observation.
By the way, to be in the top 1% of earners in 2010, you had to make over $380,000.

Regarding me crossing a picket line to kill NWA mechanics, I crossed NO picket lines. Our union (you know, you're beloved ALPA) said we had no legal rights to honor their strike without being in violation of the RLA among other things. I know you know this already, you're just doing what you normally do...lie and distort to keep people from talking about what you want kept silent. Fail!
