If we do we look like a bunch of coat tail riding freeloaders doing nothing to improve the profession today. And a year from now we will have the same or worse pay disparity as we have today only difference being we will have years left before we can even negotiate again.
You can't pattern bargain off of agreements that don't exist yet! Intentionally dragging things out on our end has serious downside risk. You have no better understanding of pattern bargaining than those you criticize on here.
