    Government. If anything says "we own you, and can do with your payment what we will" it would be the recent theft from contracted workers through a Union scam.

    The state of Michigan has played its hand.  By arbitrarily removing union dues from subcontractors with an assumption that a particular union shall receive the money, Michigan government has determined that all contracted workers will be potentially subject to the whim of any particular department, and part of the contractors payment can be arbitrarily given to the union of the department's choice.  It is an unknown that must be addressed before any more services are performed under contract for the state government.

    I am withholding my services from the state of Michigan except for those services paid for with credit card until this is resolved.

    I encourage those who receive regular payments to consider their position. The recent "unexplained" ruling must be addressed ASAP.

    Perhaps we should start using disclaimers on our quotes and proposals to the state of Michigan.

    Something like:  The proposal contained herein is being made with the understanding that payment in full will be made by the State of Michigan with no deductions for union representation.  This firm has no written agreement with a third party for representation of any kind.  If awarded this bid the State of Michigan will state, in writing, that it will not deduct union dues from the invoices presented for services rendered.

    I am sure someone with a better legal mind could word this better - but you get the drift.
