I was just reading your response out loud to my husband and he had an excellent response that I need to share:

We SHOULD support JetBlue because they are one of the only airlines not looking to the government for a handout. It is our responsibility to support their business model (non-unionized) rather than punish them.

Ask yourself which point matters more to you and decide based on that - flying one of the needy welfare "gimme a handout because we won't stand up to our unions" airlines, or a company that bought planes assembled in France that also supported Americans by using our materials?

I'm so glad I married a smart man :-)

Sorry. I disagree.

I'm not going to help a company just because it's non-union.
Political ideals can change. It's no big deal.

I'm Christian first, so I would rather support the company that is going to benefit the most workers and their families.
