I'll try one last time. Myself and many others HAVE been involved with the current union for a very long time, and every effort at reform only seems to make ALPA even worse. THAT'S why many of us think the answer is an alternate union. It's not because we haven't been will to get involved with our current union, it's because we have! And the incurable sickness that has always hampered the progress of our local union is the affiliation with ALPA.

Can we at least understand each other on that one simple point? Can you at least stop making false straw man arguments against this one simple point?
