Why should I pay to improve your wages? I work hard, and by virtue of that hard work, am recognized by my company with periodic raises and promotions. It's merit-based. If my company decides not to reward my hard work, I can decide to look for another place to work, or start my own business.

If you want better wages, I'd expect you to work hard (as I presume you do). Not pay for it. What's the point of paying for better wages anyway? Doesn't that cancel out? If you're going to pay $60K in union dues over your career, I hope you realize that's a lot of money that could have been in your pocket instead. You're making someone else rich pretty willingly.
