d in irresponsible stock buy backs to enrich shareholders, engaged in mergers that doubled their profitability (this after the last bailout of course), banned carry ons, shrunk the legroom, and even proclaimed "we'll never lose money again!" but now want the US taxpayer to foot the bill, right?

And someone is stupid enough to actuall defend this system of "capitalism"? or they're just pretending to because it benefits them?

I mean even fucking Kilbo couldn't profit $72 from their excesses
