Only reason we have bigger paychecks is because we are union. I can only imagine 2200 individually negotiated salaries and schedules. Corporate pilots would be a good example. Work more for a lot less in most cases. Outliers yes, but on the whole I’d bet we’d be making half.

Didn't Obama sign the approval in his last days of office to allow NAI Flag of Convenience model? Not to get into a political pi$$ing match, but we can get shafted from both political parties

Exactly why we need to ditch the parties and politicians could be judged on individual accomplishments instead of this tribal rep vs dem nonsense.

So basically you have to be pro all guns, no abortion ever, zero taxes, let corporations do whatever they want, anti organized labor (if you want to make more we should all be CEOs and if you aren’t you didn’t work hard enough), hate the environment

Or

Ban all guns, let people abort babies as they are being born, tax 100%, regulate everything so corporations can’t run, and give the earth back to the animals.

Nothing mixed between the two ideologies is allowed and certainly no moderate version. And why judge anyone on their record or actual ideals. And let’s forget the thousands of other issues besides these because they don’t matter. All that matters is the party and the party platform.

System is a joke.

Erase party affiliation from the ballot and watch people’s heads explode. My city council has no party affiliation and is probably one of the best run cities in America from a financial and amenities standpoint.

New low today. What is going on here? What supports this slow steady drive to the gutter?

The whole sector is in the gutter. DAL came out with weaker than expected cost guidance, and they report next week, so we’ll see what they say. The real shocker for me is AAL; they’re trading near where the stock reissued after bankruptcy if I’m not mistaken....

The sector is in trouble right now and SAVE has no real support line from which to rebound. It death crossed all the way back in May and has seen the 50 and 200 day lines diverge almost every session since then. Spirit has only seen this price point in five weeks since 2014. Its RS line is by far the lowest it's been in those five years. From a technical standpoint there's no way of telling where the bottom is. DD investors don't see any value in it either. There aren't any fundamental strengths from the last quarter to bolster it and the C suite has been warning of a bad Q3 earnings report since the Q2 call. At this point it's free fall until news or earnings break it loose.

I currently own a couple of long interests as a wildcard.
