Americans (even politicians) won't stand for that kind of inequity.

Plenty of US pilots over 60 operating in US airspace every day. Just not for 121 carriers.
But yeah, it sure is fair for all of the furloughed guys to have to sit another 5 years so the 37 year Captains at United don't have to go on the welfare rolls.

The only kind of inequity politicians won't stand for is that which limits their reelection funding. The big money says no, and so will they.
It has nothing to do with what's fair for pilots or not, it has nothing to do with health or safety. That's life.
