It's wild people are still surprised about union corruption...
Corporations and the government have an incentive for corrupt unions, so they're not going to reign in the problematic ones.
It's on the voting members of every union to keep their own union in line.
They literally just vote for whatever benefits their industry directly.
Military was the same way, I got lined and my direct chain walked a very fine line talking about if we wanted to vote for someone that would expand the military meaning more slots for promotions, or someone that would reduce by attrition and no one gets promotions for four years.
It's a real thing and should be obvious to anyone, which again is why it's wild people don't know why it keeps happening.
When resources are scarce people get selfish.
We fight that by ensuring everyone has enough so they don't have to feel selfish, then we can out otw the minority who will always be selfish.
