Typical pilot point of view. "Unions suck. Companies should not be forced into hand outs like pensions and health benefits because it makes me pay more for things....But wait! I am not talking about me and my job!"

Our opinion of the merit and utility of unions is immaterial when the question of crossing a picket line arises. It's a matter of personal integrity. If you're a member you don't cross picket lines..... period. That would breaking your word and sometimes that's all you have.
Great second part to your post, though. Well said!
