That could put Delta right out of business.

Yes, the further their popularity falls with workers the more money they funnel to RATS to skirt and change labor laws in their favor.

So they want the government to force Delta to become unionized?

That’s about what it amounts to. If the Mediation Board changes the policy there will be a lawsuit for sure.

Unions are nothing but DNC fundraisers, donors and campaign workers. They should be viewed as such by the government.

How about, anyone who wants to join the Union, joins and gets’ to pay their dues, and all those that don’t want to join the Union, get the New Union Members to pay their dues too.

That was my first thought as well.
It might seem opportunistic, but we need to make money somehow, in order to pay for the Delta bailout and massive unemployment of airline workers that would ensue...

Why would they be forced to unionize? What authority does the government have to do it?

They would not actually be forced to unionize, there would have to be a vote. But the vote would only have to be a simple majority of those that voted instead of a simple majority of all workers.

Isn’t that known as the Acorn rule?

Is it employees inside Delta, or somebody on the outside?

Forget about stocks. I am finally getting close to Silver Medallion status. I always wanted to see the inside of the Delta Sky Club.
