Well, at least some get to see the true extent of their dues here, an angry old man barking at the moon times however many HQ can afford. Thanks for that display.

With our present seniority system and the pay scales ALPA helped negotiate, ALPA has been the problem. I feel we would be better served with no union at all. Since that isn't likely, the next best thing would be creating career portability. That would empower all of us and put pressure on the airlines to compete for our services.
Second, don't blame only ALPA for the pay rates at the regionals when pilot groups like GoJet, RAH, etc are represented by Teamsters and have done near jack squat to help raise the bar.
It's not as simple as just creating one list.

Technical degrees fresh out of college starting 60 and above with virtually no skills and NOT saddled with 100K plus debt.

First off, ALPA doesn't own company seniority lists. The companies do. So how will ALPA merge seniority lists that ALPA doesn't control?
