I agree that unions were necessary and they corrected a lot of wrongs. However, that was a LONG time ago. The problem with any organization formed to tackle a problem doesn't know what to do with themselves after they have FIXED the problem. Unions have fixed the injustices of the past decades ago. Now they are more interested in lining their pockets and keeping themselves afloat at the expense of American businesses and even some of th workers they represent. In my opinion, some unions are just as bad as the robber barons of old.

Today's unions are going to have to wake up because NWA will just go Chapter 11 and then bust the unions contract that way or de-authorize the union completely. Trust me, the union higher ups are testing the waters and the poor NWA mechanics are the bait and they are going to get slaughtered.
