NEA had projected a loss of as many as 200,000 members in addition to 90,000 agency-fee payers after the Supreme Court decision. Instead, as of March, more than 217,000 new members had joined NEA since the Janus decision, and the Association has more members today than it did last year before the Court’s decision. The American Federation of Teachers (AFT), with 1.7 million members, added 88,500 members by the beginning of this year, which offset the 84,000 agency-fee payers the union lost after the ruling. Even case defendant AFSCME reports that for every member opting out since Janus, the union has gained seven new members.

So I Guess Their Arguments Against Janus Were Wrong?
Not only were their arguments obviously wrong, one wonders why they were so hell-bent on compelling me to give them money. Was my money so important to them, or was it just the compulsion they liked so much?

Seems like a win-win for you. You get too freeload. AND others have picked up your slack, helping to secure better wage and working conditions. For YOU.
Still though, you find a way to whine about it.
Whine? I just point out their flaws.
You, however--it just *grates* you that I "get to freeload". It *bothers* you, it gets under your skin. And I like that.
Now who's whining?
You know lefties. We’re okay with shouldering some burdens that others are too weak to carry.
We’ll build the fire that you’ll expect to warm yourself with. But when you complain about how warm that fire is or the color of its flame, make no mistake:
We’re ignoring you completely.
And that’s the correct response.
You *ignore* me? Is *that* why you come here, to *my* blog, and comment? This is a strange kind of ignoring you do.
