[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 3953249, member: 63706"] My point in my line of questions was to support [USER=14176]@Bubblehead[/USER]'s description that the union is run more like a: One sign of a totalitarian government is either the lack of accountability of the rulers to the citizenry, or the presence of a nominal accountibility process. As [USER=4992]@BigUnionGuy[/USER] pointed out in his answer to my question about the process: This simple fact demonstrates the inaccessibility for the average member to file charges against an elected official. Only if everything lined up perfectly would a member even stand a chance of filing any sort of charges. Unless I am mistaken, we have no authority to access systems that would make it posssible to gather evidence of wrong-doing. We would have to go through the courts, seemingly, to do so. But since we have to exhaust internal mechanisms first before going to a court, the whole thing becomes a farce. Add that to the 50% 2/3 rule, I think that makes a strong argument that the union is very much like a dictatorship or monarchy. [/QUOTE]
