With anything in life, if you are in a position where you have NO POWER, there never will be an ideal fix. Will ALPA be the ideal fix?

NO.


History has shown that having NO POWER under a DR will keep you below average all across the board with no access to numerous benefits or protections.

Record profits and you cant get a sniff of industry standard compensation and benefits?

That is precisely why unions are required!
