    Pretty sure this is illegal. That said, laws don't mean anything to a trillion dollar company.

    Even if they are fined 10 million dollars (about 10 million more than they’ll ever be fined) (what they make in about a minute) it will absolutely pale in comparison to their savings from union-busting.

    The last contract between IBT and UPS transferred $30,000,000,000 (that's 10 zeroes, thirty billion in the US) to the workers.
