I agree it is inequitable to the consumer when the folks printing the currency can devalue it willy-nilly. That's a third-world trait.</font>
Airlines bleed money, require government aid, has lots of unionized worker they pay starvation wages to (and then appease with benefits like free travel), and old airlines die to be replaced by new airlines doing the exact same thing.
Seems like many airlines share similar characteristics as third world nations.
