AARP Raises Costs for Employees' Insurance Plans

To which management agreed. You're extremely forgiving of management, even with evidence of poor manegment, but terribly hard on workers. I find this odd. Manegment can't be removed from responsibility for what they signed.

Unions fight to not reduce costs even if they lose jobs

Even if true, it doesn't matter. It's through negotiation. And both sides put their name on the paper. Both sides hold blame. And let's not for get, the artilce you supplied pointed to excess in mangement.

Look at the times. At that time people were making less than $10 an hour. They were making 3 times that. This an example of abuse of power to get pay that is extreme

oh, yes, good thinking

and it's almost always the case that management brings to the negotiation table demands for pricier and plusher pensions for the membership

well, they could always let the bosses shut down the shop

again, very clever

way to think things thru
