"Petitioner's assertion that fair-share fees are unnecessary, and his assumption that employees seek to avoid paying fair-share fees because of commonly-held 'beliefs that they do not benefit from a union's advocacy' ... are incorrect and unfounded. In fact, 'rational, self-interested individuals' often 'will not act to achive their common or group interests,' even when they agree about these common interests and how to achieve them. This is not only well established in economic theory, it is also confirmed by empirical data--including the results of recent union-certification elections"--Leaves 9-10.
