Actually it does make a difference; try to see the big picture: There's a limited amount of pie in the budget to be served up as reimbursement (inducement) to the pilots. For every kid one of us has, there's a little less for the guy who does not have a kid. If they took away the education allowance there'd be more cash spread around everyone as salary. Simple.
First I thought you were just a egoistic self-overrating maverick.
But reading the above shows otherwise. I pity you, but in the end it's your choice how you try to fit into society. Just bear the consequences.
One consequence applies to us, here in this society: You are definitely not suited for a cockpit with more than yourself in it. I am not mad, just analytic.
