i think the problem is union structure. Many of us have other union experience elsewhere that piggy backed on legacy contract, work rules, and union excos. We voted on everything and a voice. But that doesn't happen here, and if you disagree or lack the details because you weren't the select/ELECTED few behind the closed door you're labled as above. You walk and talk solidarity but leadership is also earned by and given from those willing to follow whom feel that you've got their collective best interest at heart. Not backroom deals but out in the open votes for all available options.
