Are you asking for the purpose of a labor union and insinuating that all labor unions are corrupt?

I lived in the Michigan for a couple of decades and observed the behavior of the Teamsters and UAW firsthand so insinuation is not even necessary.

The Teamesters and UAW [1] are not all unions. It's a big world out there, so don't insinuate things about unions that you don't even know exist.

Nor should you pretend you know whether a future union at HCL is going to be one of the good ones or one of the corrupt ones.

If you pay closer attention, you'll notice that I made no such claim.

If you're an auto worker, how easy is it to get completely get away from UAW?
