Mo' money, mo' money, mo' money!

In the Pioneer/Press Dispatch today there was an article in the business section about how Delta Airlines sees a strong profit/revenue margin for 2020. Um... excuse me if I have to point out something that confuses me, but didn't Delta declare bankruptcy a while back? Didn't they purchase the failing Northwest Airlines with their ample Monopoly money? Aren't they in hock up to their proverbial elbows? Ears? The peak of the Andes Mountains? They are, I'm certain of it... so how does a company that owes so much have the temerity to say that they'll have a very black 2020 profit margin? Why do these companies, lead by echelons - who continually prove themselves incapable of managing - who fail their employees, fail to safeguard jobs/insurance and hell, even the business of business itself - have a profit margin?

Playing fast and loose with Monopoly money is a dangerous game and will only hurt the little guy when the market collapses again. Big business and the banks will never admit to any culpability, will they? Oh, hell no. They'll do nothing more than reap the rewards of the shit storm they've created, while subsequently blaming it on the poor/elderly/immigrants. Need more proof that they'll get away with it... blatantly? Must I remind you who the president of the United States currently is and how disgustingly dreadful his record is as a businessman? 

Nuff said.
