Quote: if unions, including the major unions, were truly 'not for profit', there'd be no way a 'hoffa problem' could occur. fact of the matter is, union members are being used by the upper mucketty mucks. there's really no denying the continual corruption in america's unions. by the way, ask a bethlehem steel utu member how the union worked out for them. my dad paid for 43 years, only to get f-d in the end. thanks utu, for screwing my dad, my wife's grand-dad and all their co-workers out of benefits paid for for years!!
Many non-profits are victims of corruption. There are federal laws in place to deal with them. If the allegations on that web site have evidence, then there will be prosecutions. If they are just allegations and sour grapes, it won't go anywhere. BTW, I'm not a Teamster, so I won't comment on the veracity of something that I have little knowledge of. Again I don't know what happened with Bethlehem, but a lot of contracts had the employer handling pensions etc. Kind of like the fox watching the henhouse. And it may have been corruption at the union level. Anytime humans are involved, there’s the chance for unethical behavior. That is why we have laws, and labor unions are some of the most heavily regulated organizations in this country. Even more so with an unfriendly ruling party.
