Default Machinists Call for Airline Re-Regulation

Because the union stands to make a great deal of money by asking for
protection.


How do you think the union stands to profit? Do you believe the union
will raise the members' dues if their bid for re-regulation is
granted?


When I say the union stands to make a lot of money, I don't mean union dues.
"Regulation" = "Less Competition" = "Protection" of union jobs. Remember
the days before deregulation, with all the waste/bloat/high-priced tickets?

As much as we all lament the great service of the "old days", I don't think
anyone wants to pay $1K (in today's money) to fly cross-country anymore.
