So many people in here worried about how things are now, calling people uninformed about the current circumstances. My desire was to dicuss alternatives to our current circumstance which includes stating our current grievances about the industry bargaining processes. Of course that might start with a discussion of how we got here in the first place (history!) but I'm hopeful that people aren't so accustomed to the current practices that they would never make a commitment to change. After all, isn't that why so many of you voted for Obama? Change? Haha....
