Would want a union that is:

* Purely democratic, everyone has an equal vote regardless of how new or old they are.
* A majority of 75% needed to pass new stuff, because anything that is 50%/50% is divided and half the members are going to hate it and the vote might just be barely off. A 75% to pass would cause less division.
* Everyone under the same contract regardless of how new or old they are, no 20 different contracts spanning 20 years.

Would want a union that is (cont.):

* Union representatives/leaders are purely volunteer and are not paid extra from union dues.
* Union representatives/leaders are voted in using a tiered ranked voting system.
* Term limits for representatives/leaders, no being the leader for a decade. People at the top for long time == dictator.
