Interesting, but it sort of proves my point.
1) How many locals are there?
2) There are 1.5 million Teamsters.
Even if they have their hooks in it at a local level, that is a lot different than dominating the whole thing.
Didn't the FBI drop an investigation into Teamster corruption a while based on lack of evidence?
Agreed, Jonny. And it's amazing that the midwest still has
that much corruption in their Teamster locals. Because I worked for Local 813 for 25 years. I was a steward for ten years and a business agent for seven. And I'm telling you right now, it's next to
impossible for the wiseguys to get a foothold in a NY Teamsters local today. The federal mandates and restrictions are absolutely overwhelming.
