The police? Like you would call fir any crime. The union boss is also elected, so you don't vote for people that would do that. You have a lot more power/leverage in that situation than a CEO laying you off right before your options cliff, despite what the people funding whisper/fear campaigns and their shills in the media are desperate to convince you of. Point me to one example of a union boss stealing pensions and I'll bring you 100 cases of CEXs doing worse with no recourse for the victims.

Money is gone by the time police comes

It's gone the instant the CEO takes your options by laying you off a week before they vest.

^ that has happened to me. Along with a million other slights: health care reduced, vacation time reduced, etc. etc. A hypothetical union boss running off with dues never has.

Think very carefully about where this abstract fear of "bad union bosses" comes from.

Do you actually think the police protect workers from, well, anyone?
