Delta Fares

Does it bother you that Delta Airlines CEO make millions but outsources reservations to India?

when US Citizens in Atlanta could use a job? If he took a 1% paycut out of his millions - that could pay for the salaries of a Delta reservations in Atlanta.

1. not really
2. that's capitalism for you....
3. When you get a company like that, you can do it your way. Until then, why don't you come up with solutions instead of problems?
4. Not at all. Outsourcing is trade. It has been going on for centuries.
5. no. the walton family makes billions sucking the wallets of millions of americans yet they won't provide adequate healthcare for their workers and were one of the leaders in helping to kill off american manufacturing. capitalism does not know loyalty. why does this surprise you? does it surprise you that by buying chinese products we are directly funding our biggest national competitor?
6. If we got rid of payroll taxes, it would be cheaper to keep those jobs over here. The CEO's job is to keep the company as profitable as possible and he is compensated well for doing so. You attack the CEO for something that is the government's fault.
7. Delta just announced last week they were going to us US reservations employees because of the problems using Indian employees.
8. Americans are idiots. Keep encouraging morons like this guy. Maybe one day, you can get a job as a pirate.
9. Yes, it bothers me too. I don't like calling Bangalore for tech support or reservations. I can't understand the people and they really don't seem to understand me. These CEO salaries are just INSANE. How can a CEO justify compensation of 17 million dollars in one year? No person's labor is worth that. It is plain theft because CEOs pick their boards and the boards approve these ridiculous salaries instead of plowing the money into the company, into employees' pay and benefits, or into dividends for shareholders.
