I think we'd be more attractive if the actual membership stood up and participated.I remember being told that there are many conservative union members. The union still doesn't endorse that way. None of them do. They'd be more attractive if they remained apolitical in this divisive climate.
Hoffa 2 made the teamsters unattractive to non union employees. The T Force negotiations will have a lot of eyes on them.
Alot of drivers,union and non, think similar on politics.
And the bigshots of companies and unions just do as they please.
Skin color, sexuality, getting social programs for nonunion workers, globalism......none of these are union issues.
The issue is seniority and work rules.
And pay.
If a company hired....the employee must be treated as we were to get where we are.
English was required for 13 years of school.
It should be required.
If the employee can do as we did to get put on a seniority list then all is well.
Treating people special due to immigration or language or skin color or gender should not fly.
That is the way it should be.
And it doesn't even need to be talked about.
Not at work. Not on TV. Not in school. Not by government.
Companies and political groups and religions prefer to divide and break down and to mold in their own image.
I'd think it is the union job to say no.
You are not gonna divide us anymore.
Nor break us down anymore.
Our Locality does it this way....and if you are gonna operate here......we do it our way...not your way.
If changes occur they should occur due to our desire, the local citizens desire, not a multinational investor or company desire.
Unions operate by Local.
It's the companies who want no border.
You can see a little in what I say in the whole Yellow takeover thing.
It isn't just a takeover of the regional carriers who had their own ways. Eventually, and it has some....it becomes a takeover of the Local work rules and such also.
That's the effect on sovereignty.
The unions have been weak.
Yes.
But nonunion workers competing, make it even weaker.
If a company is hiring in a fishy way....then the union should have a say in how it is done.
The elites of this world do anything they can for themselves and have no respect when it comes to sovereignty.
At one time...it was " the good ole boys which may have needed watching.
Today it has reversed to diversity.
