Me. I am all for raising the wages of outsourced cabin crews, flight deck crews, etc, to the same as mainline. All for it.

 

If the goods you mention are already in violation of US law, policy and agreements, then those particular goods should be denied entry to the US.

That doesn't fit your narative though. You are trying the worn out populist debate trick of claiming hypocrisy and then using it, mother of all argumentative outrages it is, to disgard the entirety of the rest of the discussion. Sadly, that methodology is supericially effective in "throwing the baby out with the bathwater" as nothing, and I mean nothing gets people riled up and full of righteous indignition more than pointing out something apparently hypocritical. It effectively ends all discussion and debate despite the fact that it does absolutely nothing in and of itself to argue for, much less prove, one's case.

So even if your assumption was correct and there really was hypocrisy WRT, say, inhumane child labor/environmental or whatever laws as they applied to things on the shelves of Wal Mart or whatever, you still wouldn't have made your case as to why we should permit the already illegal NAI model to be illegally approved.

The best you could even come close to "proving" would be the particular Wal Mart goods in question should be denied entry, and that's assuming it was even true in the first place.

The emirati airlines flagrantly violate US labor standards and other things that are laws here but not there, but they aren't directly violating our laws in doing so. Same for the Wal Mart goods. That may make them wrong, but legal. NAI, OTOH, is already illegal. Sad that we have to pass laws to enforce existing laws though, especially about this.

If you are trying to make the case for some sort of mandate (law or no law) of being forced to allow everything if we allow anything, and then using that line of thinking to point out supposed hypocrisy, and then using that to justify your premise of allowing everything despite the law just to appear not to be hypocritical, well, that's a pretty big stretch. Which is why no one is falling for it.

 

Big difference here... NIA hires adults who have a choice. You are in fear of your livelihood.

On the other hand Kmart, Walmart engage entities beyond the boarders of the US that force children into essentially slave labor. Its a shame that US regulators refuse to do what they're paid to do... regulate. Too bad children don't have a choice.

Any American who goes and flies for this airline should be blacklisted the same as a scab.

 

Any anyone who does not order freedom fries with their burgers are just plain anti American!

 

Now you're getting the picture!

You don't have that power, and never will!

 

Sorry, the DINO(Delta In Name Only) term is "un-American".

Welcome to the club!

 

A choice to fly illegal routes?

At least a scab has the decency to wait til you're on strike. NAI pilots will do it, illegally, tomorrow if given the chance.

 

Fly NAI…for the children!
