[QUOTE="satellitedriver, post: 212396, member: 1664"] Cole, I do not know exactly when it started. It was during the strike of 97' and I started seeking info. Carey being accussed by Hoffa's faction that he would go soft on UPS since he inherited about 1 an1/2 million dollars of UPS stock from his father who was a driver for UPS in the 30's or 40's. Carey sold the stock.That was the internal struggle for power in the teamsters. The investigation was going on during the strike, but charges were not brought until after the strike. The Clinton administration waited until the after the dust settled. Carey was ousted and barred, yet exonerated. Hoffa gained control. The rest is history. The point is far from moot. In fact it is more salient now than then. The power of the teamsters protectionism( is that a word?) over UPS pension monies provided by UPS to be given to other teamsters who have never sweated brown blood is key to our (UPSER's) future ability to retire.
