Reality does not ask for your approval, either in this aspect or in any other. Supply and demand does regulate prices and wages, or else prices or wages distort supply and demand.
The only alternative is price fixing, which leads inevitably to a collapse of supply (if prices are set too low) or of demand (if prices are set too high), neither of which is good for either the supplier or the potential purchaser.
This is a case of Norwegian pilots setting their price too high. Demand for them falls. They get upset by reality.
Sorry,thought my p1ss take wasn't that thinly veiled - I think they are overpaid
