The limit per bag vs. aggregate limit is to prevent injuries of employees

That is interesting Judge.. so, if you hand in a "heavy" bag at check in it is not safe for the staff to handle it. We must think about the back injuries and the health and safety of the employees.
However, if you are willing to pay us $50, we no longer care about the safety of the employees or alternatively it miraculously becomes safer after the moolah has been handed over. Which is it? Is it safer because the passenger has paid, or does the airline no longer care about the employee when the passenger pays.
If health and safety was the issue, the EXACT opposite of what happened would be the solution. The airline would say to the customer, it doesn't matter how much you are willing to pay, it is not safe for us to handle over 50lbs. Please rejig the contents of your bags or remove some items, as it is against our health and safety policy to take bags that are over weight.
Methinks there are some holes in the safety argument Troy...
