@WilliamJMcGee If the merger is blocked and Spirit does end up filing Chapter 11 in 2024-2025, you'll surely post a 6-part multi-tweet describing how you were wrong, right?
@matthewstoller Do you suppose the preceding $13 drop over the past 12 month was also manipulation? Or just the clear evidence of a failing, unprofitable business model?
@Dupe617@Fliesyellow@econliberties@repdarrellissa@JusticeATR It doesn't seem like they looked at much data. Based on what I've read of the trial, if the DOJ found even one city-pair where Spirit had a lower cost (again, disregarding fees, which if added, negates the entire argument), they find it anti-competitive & feel compelled to block.
@WilliamJMcGee Any thoughts on Spirit's growing mountain of debt & the fairly obvious lack of viability of their ULCC business model, potentially leading to bankruptcy or a restructuring that would result in those low income Americans having even fewer options still?
