Besides, I applaude any GA company that pays it's pilot's $75K a year. I say good on them. Wish that there were more companies doing exactly the same.
Competition is somthing that all business do. However, when one business is subsidised it has a negative impact on the industry overall. Yes GA is very competitive and there are many businesses that go under for a variety of reasons, when one is subsidised, however, competition goes out the window and we take a counterproductive step towards a socialist sturcture that inevitably reduces productivity and the size of the industry overall. That means our jobs are bieng exposed to yet another destablising influence.

It would be great to earn $75k for flying singles around and it is possible for all of us to do. Running drugs, guns or the like is very profitable but in a similar way counterproductive to your career.

No malice intended to you V2, I have seen the dirty end of an operation as did 14 other pilots. Lies and omissions that make Desperate Housewives look like a great bunch of people and it is not somthing that any of us will forget in a hurry.
