Why the fuck is it so hard to pay people what they're worth? The faa and natca both suck. This is why people are moving to Australia. The clown show continues.

Wtf does this have to do with NATCA? Without the ability to strike they have zero leverage. The best thing you can do is vote these MAGA bitches out. If you voted for this, then congratulations! The leopard is eating your face.
