I don't understand the basic premise here. It seems to be that the unions have very effective strikes. Okay, but that just turns negotiations into playing the "ultimatum game" which isn't great but shouldn't consistently give one side almost all of the winnings.
- cperciva 12y agoWorkers can find work with other employers. Employers can't hire replacement workers.
- dublinben 12y ago>Employers can't hire replacement workers. Sure they can. They're called scabs or strikebreakers.
- JackFr 12y agoThe article points out that airlines are unique, in that FAA regulations make the hiring of replacements effectively impossible.
- mcv 12y agoI don't quite understand how those FAA regulations would work for new airlines. If pilots need a certain amount of experience flying with that specific airline, and the airline only just came into existence, how can they possibly hire pilots?
