Yeah you're right, "unconflicted" IPA and APA did so well for their furloughs. The massive increase at DCI was mostly to non-ALPA pilot groups, that didn't "help" ALPA or any of us in the last decade.
Nobody saved the company from BK, and no union could save a company from BK... If I'm wrong please show me a good example.
Poor management leads to bankruptcy, keep your blame in the right place.
