40% of those forced to join unions voted for Republicans, yet their dues goes to Democrats. The SCOTUS, if it were in its right mind, or the Congress if they had a backbone, would make it law that union political contributions must be collected separate from dues and it must be totally voluntary

Yep. To make matters worse, the dues members pay doesn't go to union organizing activities or to work related responsibilities the union is there for. When it goes to the Democrats - well who needs a forced political action committee subsidiary of the Democratic Party? If union members want to donate to a political party, that should be the subject of a separate fee. It would keep unions honest.
