A CBA is rarely negotiated by unions in good faith, it's normally negotiated by blackmail. It doesn't exactly fit into the phrase, because the company is not "willing" to pay for it, they are forced to by blackmail.
Last time I checked, "blackmail" was a crime. So, if your statement is true, shouldn't every negotiation end in criminal charges filed against the Union?

Also, last time I check, not bargaining in good faith was a duty required by both parties under the RLA. So, again, if your statement is true, shouldn't every negotiation end in a suit being brought against the Union?
