knox. because illinois is broke. it is my home state -- it kills me how much they have gone down hill since i left. [laughter] john e.: i don't think they are connected. in any event, how much the government spends or how much illinois spends on benefits for its public employees has -- it effects the state's solvency. the opinion had two parts, and i think they are both important. the first part is the straight first amendment argument. said the majority, the conservatives, said this is compelled speech, compelled subsidizing of speech. they said the original rationales didn't hold up in the -- old 41-year-old rationales, labor peace and having only one union, and also to avoid free riding. the court got rid of those in a hurry. then it turned toward the later rationale, offered by the union and dissenters, which was a pickering type of argument that the state, as an employer, has more leeway in restricting speech than it does when they are just private citizens. the majority wasn't very persuaded by those, either. ,t then turned to stare decisis very important because everybody is watching to see what the court w
