Fine, then. Your opinion of me disgusts me. Boy, this is a lot more fun than actually exchanging ideas and opinions!Nope! Just my opinion of your talk.
Did it ever occur to you that maybe I just didn't want to be anywhere near you? Since my opinion disgusts you I'd think you'd be pleased.By the way thanks for showing up on the 16th of Nov. to support your bretheren... Oh! Wait you couldn't make it because you said you only had 3 days off. Thanks.
Youre point being...???? Oh, sorry you don't have one.

...and that's just it ...you won't. Those $350,000 paychecks,if there were any such things, were earned prior to the advent of deregulation. Working for an airline back then was much like working for the local utility company (ie your costs go up well, by golly, just file some paperwork with the CAB and raise your ticket prices. Problem solved.) Deregulation has eliminated that option. It is now market forces at work and the market has spoken. "$500 dollars and no more for my ticket" Companies either adjust to the realities of the new marketplace or they cease to exist, plain and simple. I don't like it any more than the next person,but it is what it is.

Well, not exactly. You may have worked for an airline that was not permitted to serve certain markets and thus didn't generate the revenue to pay exhorbitant salaries. But regulation did restrict the number of competitors and kept fares high, but the rationale was that a stable industry would embrace technological advances and the industry would grow. When the airlines abandoned the SST and decided to sit back and get fat, then the government decided that it no longer needed regulation....and that's just it ...you won't.
