[Deadalus]

Actually it's a Republic--idiot! Why don't you dry hump a photo of Hitler.

Actually it's a Democratic Republic--pea brain!

Click that link. Go to page B-11. Go to item 1A risk factors. Read to the top of page B-14. Now keeping the tone of pages B-11 through B-14 in mind, reread Frontier's 10-K. Keep in mind that the link above comes from the healthiest airline in the business and it is still fraught with scary statements like, "The Company’s inability to successfully implement its revenue initiatives could adversely affect its results of operations."

Granted, Frontier is in bankruptcy and Southwest is not, so there are a couple of other "risks" that need to be disclosed. Just because Frontier management writes about some scary stuff in that disclosure does not necessarily mean that it is going to imminently happen, just like the statement I cut and pasted above from SWA's annual report isn't necessarily going to happen either.

Official disclosures such as these often contain statments such as these just to cover the company's a** in case things go pear shaped and investors get sue-happy. I would guess that the SEC requires full disclosure of any reasonable risk a potential investor might face.

That reporter should know better and is just digging for a story at the expense of Frontier employees.

There is a huge difference between the statements "could adversely affect results of operations" and "could cease operations"

So I guess you'll be voting for McCain then? That's just what we need when our industry is in the toilet, some old codger who doesn't even have our interests in the BACK of his mind to pull the flush lever.

Long live the G.O.P.(Grand Oil Party)

 

[Jeff Helgeson]

This is a better interpretation

Dude your not helping out your point very well. With your coffee example your saying the the 10k informs us that the company will probably cease to operate and has to spell it out the those too dumb to realize it. Just like a "contents hot" warning is put there for those too dense to realize that a cup of coffee is hot

I agree more with your point of view than the original poster.

To the original poster:

It is nothing more than a disclaimer or the required information like you sign before a medical procedure or any type of contract the requires all possible information. So when you pick up a medication and read all the possible side effect, I guess that is the manufacturer just admitting all that bad stuff is going to happen?

Democracy? Try communism. Your type can't make it without my help and you know it. That is why you whine piss and moan about how "the Man" is destoying your pathetic little life. No one owes you anything crybaby. You are responsible for you and your family. This industry owes you nothing and I sure as hell owe you nothing. Its called personal responsibility. Capitalism didn't fail it just left your lazy ass behind.

As opposed to the empty suit, inexperienced, socialist? I'll vote for what's good the COUNTRY first, then worry about the "industry" later. We are on a fast train to ruin and the Democrats and environ-mental cases are driving it.

Actually...

We are a representative republic. Which apparently is a form of democracy that allows people who didn't pay attention in school to vote.

 

[Newf Dog]

Ditto "bookingsareup" and "Ualdriver"s posts.

If people actually read these reports most people would never buy a share of stock in any company. It's all legal CYA.

Having said that it's no great revelation that F9's back is up against the wall.

You GUP as an ex-F9er should be ashamed of yourself for fanning the flames with a post like that, "CEO hints at shutdown."

Is "piling on" the way the "classy" guys at SWA do business. Of course you guys wouldn't stand to benefit one iota from hastening F9's demise would you?

You beat me to it. A major +1 here!

What is your point commie? What do you suggest, the government step in and make us all equal? That way lazy, worthless spiritless, soulless pieces of excrement like yourself can survive in this cold cruel world. I would just love to get to take care of you and your family since its to much of a burden for your pitiful crybaby self. You are an oxygen thief. Every breath you take is stolen air.

Man, you sure do easily fly off the handle panic boy.....typical knee-jerk reactionary conservative. I hope you don't fly like you converse on a message board.

I was implying that more regulation is in order and you automatically brand me a communist? Does making every issue black and white make it so you don't have to think? Is everything that isn't laissez faire capitalism automatically communism? I guess my post worked because it was directed at simpletons like you.

Try educating yourself and encumbering yourself with the thought process sometime. Until then, just fly the plane.

The russians probably got closer to pure Communism than we ever will to pure capitalism. We are closer to socialism than capitalism.

HA HA! Not even close, try again!:laugh:


BTW; Tell that to the oil industry and its speculators and they will laugh while their hired help polishes their Maybachs!

"could adversely affect results of operations"

Not in BK

"could cease operations"

In BK

There's the huge difference.

-not sure where you are going with this.

An old Soviet saying: "We pretend to work, and they pretend to pay us."
The airline business is the most over-regulated deregulated industry there is. We don't need any more government involvement in our lives. If this means a company has to fail, then so be it.

jhill: Why so tense?

I hope he wins for no other reason than to piss off retards like you.

Yes, that's why I wrote the following statement in the post (#18) that you quoted: "Granted, Frontier is in bankruptcy and Southwest is not, so there are a couple of other "risks" that need to be disclosed."

Your mommy and daddy must be leaving you a ton of money. No that can't be it. My parents are wealthy and I don't believe in destroying the middle class and turning American into a two class system.
I think you're just really dumb.

 

[Deadalus]

I should add some of the hardest working people I know are farmers and they're getting left behind. As they're being pushed out by corporate money sucking farms I don't see too many of them turning conservative Republican. In fact the majority of them are Democrat.
