As long as the airlines continue to oversell and bump people, there will be people who take advantage of the situation. The ones I don't like (though I wouldn't go as far as calling hem conteptuous) are the people who purchase full fare, and if they don't get a bump, just refund their ticket. At least the OP actually intends to travel.
