VA Pilot dispute

We are talking about a union that is a business, a business that relies on members for its survival and now is demonstrating more cynical practices than the companies that its members work for. Surely, the VA pilots who fly 750 hours per year ( the lowest in the industry). in the coolest airline on the planet. This has to be more about the desperate death throes of an union that is an irrelevance in the 21st century, but which cynically spins disputes to justify its existence.
From someone totally on the pilots side...
