Thanks (no sarcasm). If it's a dead-end, the voices saying so need to become more numerous, the confirmation bias to 'go' is clearly visible upthread. A lot of money could be lost. As long as some of it ends with the middle men they're not the ones telling you. No matter if honestly underinformed or actively scheming.
On the second sentence, agreed as well. A second wrong doesn't fix the first one (re: BananaJoe). A real shortage will drive the packages up, attracting the worldwide US pilots back to home soil. That tide will raise all the boats.
Airlines chasing foreigners only have a singular motivation to secure lower-cost labour while avoiding employment responsibilities normally associated with running their business.
