The whole role of Moore's movie is anti-capitalism and pro socialism. If you want everyone to be equally miserable, than I would agree Moore is your friend. After 24 years of hard work, I recently (3 yrs ago) made it on to a major airline with great pay and QOL. I want my children to have that "opportunity"-note I did not say "guarantee." Changing the basic system of the most successful country ever is not the "change" I want.
 
Blaming others for your own decision.

Having spent years at one of the worst commuter airlines around, I understand how difficult the job is. What I still can't understand is how someone can complain after willingly taking such a job.

Before I went off to the commuters I knew the pay was crap. I knew the working conditions and hours were horrid. I also knew advancement to the best jobs in this unstable industry was no better than a crap-shoot. Who among the readers here would like to admit they knew none of this?

And then, to complain to someone as disingenuous as Michael Moore is simple insanity. This person who makes millions in the capitalist system only to turn around and slam capitalism? That makes no more sense than complaining about a job you willingly accepted. Moore is simply an opportunist trading on the dissatisfaction of others. Do you really want that type of person as an ally?

Good luck.

Has either one of you even seen the movie? Apparently not. If you did see it, you weren't paying attention. It is not anti-capitalism/pro socialism at all. You say this as if it is black and white and that is not what the film does.

Sorry, Chief, but I disagree. Signing on for a job does not constitute a waiver of the right to try to change and improve things, nor do you relinquish your right to complain about existing conditions.
 
Michael Moore is a blowhard who is in it to get publicity, and money, for himself. When he showed up to arrest the chairman of GM, he knew that wasn't going to happen. When he showed up on Wall Street asking to get the american people their money back, he knew he wasn't going to get it. When he lauded the cuban healtch care system as being more advanced and more available than the US system, he knew he was lying about something that americans would never be able to verify.

Personal responsibility.

I agree, change it, improve it, take over and make it the best - no argument. But if that job is so bad, why accept it? Don't complain about a situation you alone chose to enter. No sympathy here.
 
Nail on the head!

Moore is a gasbag and he doesn't give a rat's a$$ about pilots or anyone else. He's just lining his pockets with money from his "movies"!
