[QUOTE="Atomic_Smurf, post: 1543496, member: 46684"] That is a nice story but we are not disagreeing on the benefits and importance of collective bargaining. Our disagreement is about the effects of RTW. Fact is the expansion of RTW States forced the hand of negotiators to get new hires at UPS the first pay increase in 30+ years. The ACA on the other hand had quite a negative impact on the benefits we earn in this contract. Union members were told to support the ACA and rally against RTW but the results of both pieces of legislation have been quite the opposite of what many were made to believe. As more states become RTW you will see better representation of bottom rung union members in every contract in order to persuade them to join the union. That my friend is a good thing. At the same time you will continue to see our healthcare earnings diminish thanks to the Democrats hc "reform" "redistribution". You are fighting the wrong fight. [/QUOTE]
