[QUOTE="DELACROIX, post: 4799158, member: 49065"] Many factors related to the Central: a. Deregulating the Trucking Industry in the 1980's also the ability of these companies not to be held accountable for their pension liabilities (bankruptcy laws). b. Federal intervention caused by questionable investments also in the 80's c. Mob influence in the Leadership in the 60's and may still be happening as far as we know. d. The Union Leadership's inability or failure to organize new participants or members to pay into their plans. c. UPS's ability to eliminate or reduce full time positions in favor of increasing (non contributing) part time ones in the 70's, 80's and 90's... d. Political pie in the sky promises to increase benefits in order to get elected to these Union Offices. e. The Leadership's lost interest in listening to their members or changing with the times (currently). friend. Central States raising the benefits in the 90's from 1,500 to 3,000 for 30 years service any age. g. The inability or unwillingness of these negotiating committees to make any concrete creative changes, instead they only cared about being elected without thought of the disparity among their membership's benefit levels in different conferences or pension plans. h. Stock Market crashes similar to the 2008 almost right after the Central taking the 6.1 Billion UPS buyout. i. The "Good Old Boy" structure that fosters a lack of transparency and honesty with what is happening in the negotiation process, particularly in the last three. After all most of us are just "Dumb" truck drivers..we know what is best for them attitudes, and finding loop holes to rig the voting results. j. The real lack of power or accountability with these federal agencies that oversee labor dealings or pension fraud. Many more factors, be free to add any... :thumbsup: [/QUOTE]
