Midknight Review -- new and revised: The demand for union dues from non-union members is nothing short of theft, and more than one Governor is putting a stop to it.

Editor's Notes: Here we have another Governor (other than Walker in Wisconsin) who is opposed to the collection of union dues from those who are NOT union members. Incredibly, this sort of thing is a campaign issue coming from the Democrats, who pretend that in this extortion effort, nothing short of legal theft, they are benefiting the Middle Class. Time for a change. This sort of thing is obviously wrong headed. If the GOP stands its ground on such matters, their success rate in national elections will only increase. Salute to the Illinois Governor.

WGNTV Bruce Rauner stepped up his campaign against government employee unions by eliminating so-called “fair share” dues paid by workers who don’t join a union.

The Republican said Monday he has signed an executive order erasing what he says is a “critical cog in the corrupt bargain crushing taxpayers.” or He says forcing non-union employees to pay union dues requires them to fund political activity they don’t agree with.

He says he took action after a U.S. Supreme Court’s decision last year that found the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act violated the First Amendment by mandating involuntary union dues.

Rauner has called for ending political contributions by unions.

Rauner’s executive order has no effect on those who wish to remain in unions.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
