I don't have any numbers on how many drivers there are now compared to 20 years ago, but I would bet there are a lot more. That means that the unions represent an even smaller percentage of drivers than they did then. I would say somebody is not getting their message across. I would certainly be worried if I was pro union.
over 20 years, on an average of $20 a month in dues.. 5 million members.. that equals out to be $24,000,000,000..

seems to be a pretty hefty loss to me..
