Public union membership falls by half once you give union members choice

It turns out that a lot of public union members in Wisconsin don't believe in the union.  The moment Scott Walker's reforms freed them from compulsory union membership almost half dropped out.  Imagine that:  a whole lot of people were being coerced into giving large sums of money to a private institution that they did not support as a condition of their employment.  It's a pity we can't do this everywhere - then the unionistas would have far less of other people's money to waste on entrenching their power.

The times they are a changing...in the WSJ.
