union extractions and contractions

what is a useful analogy  to the multiple functions of a dues stream

as a  complusory fee for involuntary membership or
unsolicited choiceless  services rendered

since when should union dues
be a tax   not  a donation  ??

the funding of   organizing and negotiating operations
 is inadequate even with present union shop arangements

and yet even so  dues payments remain problematic
as the sufficient source for union growth back to the magic 1/3 level of the glory days of the galloping cio


how's that for pompously grave hot air ???
