Cohen, Weiss and Simon along with all their former partners and offshoots are the beating heart of the dues consuming monster up there in Herndon. They bill us for tens of million$ every single year. They aren't going to do anything that might rock the boat. They are hopelessly entrenched in their mahogany paneled complacency.
Don't forget...these "industry respected experts" were also the ones that fought ALPA's own in-house union of staff members and tried to break their union. They lost that battle too and will have to pay at least $700,000 dollars in damages to the unionized employees they tried to break.
I'm sorry, THEY won't have to pay the $700,000...WE WILL! Because all the money THEY waste with their poor legal skills, is given to them by US.
