There are many other good reasons for joining a union I just don't think this is one of them.
Well it actually is a good reason. You may want to study the new federal law, Public Law 110-161 was enacted in December 2007 to prevent what TWA want through. It would not protect a group that was not collectively represented though, hence the reason for my post.
