[QUOTE="Inthegame, post: 1210425, member: 37112"] An increase in wages will provide a dues increase that will strengthen the IBT marginally but locals actually fear a reduction in dues as the four year progression keeps members at the lower rates one additional year hence less dues. The three year progression has had an detrimental impact already. Add in enhancements to pension rates which will entice more senior (highest dues payers) members into retirement and the impact could become severe. A senior FT pays around $82+ per month. A new drivers dues are half that, which corresponds to less per capita for the IBT. If indeed the IBT lacked integrity and transparency and only was seeking point 4, they'd have pushed hard for wage increases and tank bennys. Lengthy progression is hard on everyone. [/QUOTE]
