A counter suit costs money. Maybe the association wants to get fined and force the company to have a vote and blame AA for the whole thing. At the end of this all the association will still be here and the dues will continue to flow. If anyone complains about it the default answer will surface again. "You guys voted for it".When they wouldn't countersuit American they just admitted their guilt, and gave management all the power to say here is your deal, you can take it now, or roll the dice, and hope the economy doesn't change.
