85 Hour Overtime

I don't get it.

1. Almost every pilot on average is working harder and have overtime lines, by the way, at an abysmal rate.
This is approximately 66% of our basic hourly pay (monthly basic divided by 75hrs as per contract)
2. This is exacerbated by recent resignations.

Now they want overtime raised to 85 hours.

This begs the questions:
1.Is this moral?
2. Is this ethical? And,
3. Is this how hard work is being rewarded?

Finally, this raises the possibility that maybe someone stands to benefit by cutting just rewards on others hard work.
