So, all those workers voted on whether this was a good contract. I know I love reading 2,000 pages of legal crap.

Frankly, I think contracts this long are stupid. Look at most of the legislation in DC. It's so long that people can't (and don't) read it. The 342 page USA PATRIOT Act passed in a day. Sure, some people might be able to read 342 pages in a day, but I doubt any of them did.

I'm not against regulation or making clear what you're doing, but at a certain point it gets ridiculous. People need to be able to understand the laws and contracts that govern them.
