Care to elaborate with some evidence that this statement is "mindless populist drivel?"

The website tries to paint Spirit as some sort scandal where greedy traders drove it into the ground. Most of Spirit's debt was for financing expensive planes and surviving the pandemic. Literally every airline borrowed to survive the pandemic. Spirit has an ultra thin margin business, trying to compete on price, flying competitive routes, in an industry already known for losing money.

To my knowledge, there was no Wall Street villain here, and the creator of this page just inserted this sentence to arouse populist sentiment, because he/she knows a certain % of the population is primed to unthinkingly accept any narrative that the 1% have ruined something for the 99%.

“Wall Street” doesn’t load companies with debt or extract value from anything.

Why not hooking up with a tribal Nations!? I am sure the indigenous nations would be more than excited to help get get a airline back to the people

I have a pitch to buy American Spirits and American airlines to bring back smoking on airplanes. I would be happy to pivot to purchasing Spirit Air.
