Are you sure your union isn't helping? No union is going to be run by miracle workers, but that doesn't mean they don't improve conditions. I can't say for sure, but I suspect this sentiment is part of why union membership fell apart in the 20th century "well my union doesn't do anything for me anyways."
Like democracy, unions do require some upkeep via people stepping up. If you don't like how your union is performing, you could consider becoming a rep (admittedly based on my limited understanding as a non-union employee).
Yes, I am pretty sure. I know most people there personally. It's kind of sad it even exists, pretty much waste of money in this case.
//edit: it's virtually impossible to become rep in this case. The company is like family business (not real family, but everyone knows everyone since forever kind of thing) and it is like stalemate for everyone both in union and in management. Unions know they won't do anything without trying hard (and they won't because most of them are nearing retirement and they want their peace) and management know unions won't cause them problems, because they're what they are.
