Most of us that deal in union negotiations believe that the main objective of USW is to get more people hired because that means more union membership. More membership means more dues and more money for union leaders.


I agree with this. It goes further than dues, but it is true. The process to remove unions through attrition started decades ago. The union is now finally waking up to this and trying to reverse the course. No way it happens easily though.

Workers have become more about self preservation today and won't put up a fight, even if it spells their doom in 20 years.

Are you simply stating people are more interested in paying their bills, therefore they are more willing to work vs. fighting with the union and their goals?
