Well Mr. Jon,

I don't care for freebies, but I like bargains. I really have worked hard for

my $$. Paid off college loans, paid off houses and bought another with cash.

I loathe debt far more than I need things. I can get a pair of jeans for <$10.00

at a thrift store so why get designer jeans at 10 x the price? People are ego driven

and like to display their wealth to show up others, create a certain envy. Living

standards paid for by cc ongoing? Really bad economics, that. .Gov paying the

way for immigrants crossing the border is an horrific policy. .Gov facilitating deadly

drugs flooding the country is an evil policy. Mandating flu drugs that injure and kill

people is equally rotten. .Gov may be rotten itself.

Last, good writing is a gift, and reading it can heal the soul sometimes. Compensate the

great and even okay writers so one can learn and enjoy those pleasures.
