Those of you who have said no bail out, thanks so much for the concern for my and the hundreds of thousands of other airline employees jobs. Thanks so much for thinking of the little guys!
Very pissed off!

I'm sorry Bill if you are taking this thread personall, but frankly, my comments are more for the typical corporation who mismanages it's affairs to the point that competition has diminished it's ability as an ongoing concern. As I indicated, I am all for tax assitance and other methods of assistance as it directly relates to the catastrophe and subsequent shutdown of the airway over the USA by the FAA. In addition, there is a lot the Unions can do to help these airlines stay in business.....frankly, saying me, me, me is not the answer.
However, I will never support any kind of bailout! That is not what this country is all about and I am sorry if you think that keeping an ineficient company in business is good business!
Is there anyone here who really thinks that someone else will NOT come along and hire you? Assume Continental goes out of business.....is there NO Airline who would not LOVE to take over the terminals at Houston, Newark or any of Continentals other hubs?? Economics 101 people.....inefficient businesses are driven out, more efficient businesses prevail. It's good for the economy, good for the customers and, in many cases, good for the employees.
I will miss TWA, but frankly, a bailout would have been a WORSE disaster for the American people.
