[QUOTE="JonFrum, post: 230775"] My memory is that it had nothing to do with management's plan. The sales brochure for the UPS plan for hourlies was *silent* on the Social Security Offset matter. Since this is a feature of single-employer plans, questions were asked. Would UPS rule out a Social Security Offset and put the matter to rest? They never did. People drew the natural conclusion that a Social Security Offset either would be a part of the plan, or it would at least be a nasty bone of contention while negotiating the plan details. Remember, there was no actual plan. Just a sales brochure. We wern't being invited to join the existing management plan. UPS' strategy was that we first end the strike, go back to work, and only then, after we had lost all leverage, would the plan features be negotiated. [/QUOTE]
