thanks so much helane becker of cowen i spoke to another analyst and he said the same thing the airlines analysts are willing to say this money will not be well spent because the airlines need to do a little bit of belt tightening according to this new reality we live in. >> if you look at delta who is going to report next week, the numbers are something like revenues down 70% for the third quarter and expenses down only 50 i realize there are fixed expenses they can't fall back on, but i would fall in line as well far be it from me to argue with the airlines analysts. this is not me casting insensitivity over job loss. we are looking at the airline industry and trying to understand the health of the industry and how money should be allocated. yesterday's trade in the airlines was painful if you look at a company like delta, they have more than enough liquidity to get through here if you listen to helane, she is looking at delta two or three years and trying to discount back and what is the number you put on it. i believe she has $36 share price. that's the thing, the ones that will be h

it was kind of an approximation to the gary becker plan. i was quite impressed with what the president has done with immigration in terms of policy. the rhetoric, i'm a policy analyst, not a speechwriter, but i look at the substance and i am pretty impressed. >> are you impressed by the president'residents immigrations or direction? >> i think that in terms of the substance of the specific postal, there were a lot of questions about the details of that proposal, but the basic idea that we should have a skill -- move towards the skill-based immigration system and away from the immigration system is completely sound. i guess my own view is why not do both, why not just have a significantly larger number of high skilled emigrants and add that on top of what we are already doing. but that is a reasonable policy goal. again the details of the proposal needed some work, but the deals were overall architecture and philosophy. i agree with casey about that. i don't think we should judge the entirety of the president's work on immigration based on t

system that supports consumer interest and demand >> let dig deeper into these results with helaine becker. i want to sort of try out a hypothesis on you and that is if the airlines have done what they can do with respect to cost cutting and cost management, then it would seem that their recovery will depend on a revenue bounceback at what point do the airlines get to a break even point? in order, what percentage of their 2019 revenue do they need to break even and where are they roughly now? >> they probably need 50%, somewhere between 40 and 50% o last year's revenue. and actually, thank you very much for having me, tyler. it's good to talk to you again and right now they're still down 75, 80%. so we have a ways to go. to their point, obviously both are still hopeful that the government will come along with more c.a.r.e.s. act funding for them to get to march of 2021 i think that's the view of most people in the industry that if they get there, things will turn around our view is more, yes, that will help but we need things to open up and we need more people flying, we need higher revenu
