Hey Stoki, are you forgetting that you have friends at RAH? Well, at least one.
I can hopefully speak for my coworkers and say that we will fight for proper pay and work rules.
Don't count us out before we even step into the ring.

Typical Republic pilot excuse for their actions.

Genius and well put. That is the exact same reason Modern Liberalism will never work. Sounds good in theory, but will never work in reality.
