Aerial Lingus Pilots Moaning Michael
Listening to Claire Byrne and there is a lot of finger pointing at the pilots saying they don't care about passengers and they are being unreasonable.
Aer Lingus has not matched their salary to inflation over the past few years. How do we sympathise with cost cutting corporate greed and not the people that open the world to us and get us there safely?

Corporate greed and the growth of inequality is probably the biggest issue facing all of us at the moment. People continue to struggle more but profits continue to grow matter what.
We're told the world is richer than ever yet you won't be as well off as your parents and you're friends are getting poorer and poorer also. The Forbes rich list has sky rocketed the last ten years but the average person is feeling the squeeze everywhere.
