Breaking!!! SCOTUS rules against big labor!

[Bigun]

SCOTUS says, in no uncertain terms, that non union worker cannot be forced to pay dues to a union to which they do not belong!

[skeeter]

Including public employee unions? This is epic.

OUTSTANDING!!!

5-4???? 

[skeeter]

5-4????

The usual 4 suspects.

Kennedy has been stepping up - hope one of the other four marxist fossils retires before he does.

[Bigun]

5-4????

Yes!  Of course it was 5/4. You don't think any of the socialist members would vote for this do you?

AFSCME is the litigant, so especially public employees.

Mark my words:

The union-controlled states will pass a "union tax:" any person who opts out of a labor union must pay a tax equal to the dues of the union in their company.

This will be based on Roberts and the Obamacare precedent.

This is big!

There will be all manner of mechanization tried and all will fail!  This is a knife in the heart to the Democrat party!

Sweet.

Every state is Right to Work now. This is the biggest SC ruling since Roe.

Ya think?..

I do, and good morning, Bigun.

@Frank Cannon

Yep!  No doubt about it!

The teacher's union rules CA with an iron fist. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out here.

[Bigun]

I do, and good morning, Bigun.

Good morning to you my dear!  Life is GOOD!

Supreme Court deals sharp defeat to public employee unions, banning mandatory fees

While good news, I think it's ridiculously sad that we have to hang every shred of what remains of our liberty on what 9 justices in black robes have to say.

Thanks @Hoodat!  I was in a hurry to get the news out!

  to that my friend!   It truly is sad!  These last two rulings should have been 9/0.

Especially when four are rabid ideologues, the farthest thing in the world from jurists. Its almost a farce.

But we gotta play the hand we're dealt.

Patience, Grasshopper.  Patience.

I don't see how that changed who is in the union.  They were charging fees to those not in the union.

That is exactly right @thackney and now they can no longer extract dues from non members as they are currently doing.  It's a BIG deal.
