That's true, but in many cases it is only to leave enough room for union management to stick their pencil dicks in there too.
I do not believe people should be forced to join a union and pay dues as a prerequisite of employment. Once upon a time I worked in a Boeing union shop without paying dues. I opted not to be a dues paying member because the only thing that mattered to the union was seniority. While seniority should certainly be an important part of the equation it should not be the only thing that matters. I did twice the work for half the pay of the super senior union reps with zero chance of ever earning as much as they did despite being better at the position we were all hired to fill.
