You are your own worse enemy Carl.
In my universe, MILLIONS of dollars given to the ALPA PAC over the decades does constitute being strongly funded. Whether those many MILLIONS of dollars come from 13% or not, ALPA got that money. And they've done nothing to move the agenda regarding how badly the RLA and NMB hurts us. What ALPA has done with the money is back far left political candidates. Again, how's that working out for us?

Your response is interesting though. I guess in your universe, if more pilots than 13% would contribute to the ALPA PAC, then ALPA would place RLA and NMB reform on their agenda. Interesting.
