I refer to the fact that there is a regulation that allows a compensation cap and if there are no takers, call the cops. Remove that regulation and United would have to figure out a different way - like offer more money or face the threat of a suit. (Remember, the way things currently stand, United look like massive dicks, but they did not break the law.)
