Stop extracting 80% of the profits for the investment class from the tourism industry and paying the pilots triple their current wages would be simple.

not that simple. stop extracting profits, then no one wants ownership of the company anymore.

so you’re jumping from a relatively minor quirk in labor staffing to a socialist takeover of a multibillion dollar business. be realistic, it ain’t happening.

Other than employees already run the business.
