When you said "western states is funded and doing good" that says to me that if you're fortunate to live out there you're good and is totally glossing over that a majority of us would fall under CSPF, so I got mine and to hell with everyone else. I'm not putting words in anyone's mouth I'm stating my take on what was said. If I'm wrong sorry but that's how it appeared from an outside perspective.
If you think that the union isn't going to press hard to get any new companies (XPO and FedEx) into CSPF you're really being naive. They are going to want to prop up their
up with CSPF. The whole idea of choosing what fund you go into is a pipe dream, the IBT has shown a track record of not giving a damn about its members and forcing said members to take things that aren't in their best interests. The IBT isn't in the business of representing anyone but their own interests anymore. What's to say they won't strong arm or cajole any new members into CSPF? They don't give a damn about anyone but themselves.
