[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 1403192, member: 24302"] But in order for there to be a vote EVERYONE nationwide has to participate. Those who don't are automatic no votes. Thus it takes an organization that's national in scope to organize. A courier can talk locally all he wants, but he doesn't have the ability to get people involved 6 states over. The company does hold all the cards, and unless the government changes the rules no national union is going to waste it's time and money. And let's face it, higher paid couriers means higher shipping costs. The government will have to face a lot of business owners who count on lower costs to keep their profits up. These are the people who make campaign contributions. Simply put, we are being sacrificed so others can make more money. There'll be no government support, no union support. Any talk of what couriers will do is academic. Different times from when unions first came about. [/QUOTE]
