Yvette put up a bunch of numbers in rows and columns on the screen and hardly explained any of it or what they really represent.
We were then asked to "approve" the budget.
Even though nobody really understood what those numbers meant, they all voted yes to the union budget.
I voted no, and so did one other person. I refuse to vote yes on an issue that I have no understanding of.
Apparently the vast majority of members are willing to take the word of our officers.
And so 40 people get to make decisions for the 1500 of us.
Personally, I think it pathetic. It mirrors our political system. A minority of people get to decided on what the majority of people will have to live by.
