As with any profession people have to do their research and make informed decisions. Aviation today is at best a gamble, except that and live with the decisions after placing your bets. Yes, the rules of the game in this industry are unique, but we don't make the rules and for sure they won't change, too much hot air and nonsense talked about legislation, Christ it takes 20 yrs to decide where to build a new runway let alone deal with the nitty gritty of employment conditions etcetera.
