I don't understand? It is a fee which creates membership rights in an
organisation, and it is mandatory. As mentioned upthread, this is a
violation of internationally accepted basic rights. I remain a citizen
whether I pay my taxes or not. I also pay my taxes to parts of the
executive government that are nominally non-political.

How about I keep voting labor / greens and not be forced into paying
Union / SA fees to a political organisation that has no party that
represents my viewpoints? I feel like that's also a reasonable
compromise. Campus life hasn't declined on my campus since the
introduction of VSU.
