Can't disagree with you, Hank.

We charge non-CORSA members an extra $10 which we send to CORSA. It  
helps even this out.

We used to let non-CORSA members belong for a year, then they had to  
join. I thought this was a good system. It gave them a year to see if  
they were really interested in Corvairing and to learn about our club  
and CORSA. Most went ahead and joined.

After a few years we had a few unhappy about being "told what to do"  
and being "forced to join CORSA". I had some tell me they knew of  
people ready to join our club as soon as we dropped the CORSA  
membership rule. Finally, we changed it to what I mentioned above.  
We've had new members join since then but I don't think any of them  
joined because they didn't have to join CORSA. Most simply joined  
CORSA, wanting to be part of it.
