MANDATORY
PAYMENT VS VOLUNTARY SUPPORT - Today mandatory payment is the currency of
empire. “We have this that you need, you must pay for it, we get wealthy.”
Voluntary support is quite a bit less reliable. We are not Verizon or Time
Warner, but we are a powerful voice for the community. We understand that there
are mandatory payment services that you cannot avoid but the money you
contribute here will do more for your world than all the money you are required
to pay for mandatory things. Volunteer something. You know what we’ll do with
it. / Marc Ash, Founder Reader Supported News

After all, Radio Liberty has a history of cuddling up to Nazis."
