The high number of 'HITS' in this venue of posts of articles from INDEPENDENT MEDIA are  disappointing.

THE KEY IS, "REASONABLE SUPPORT" RSN is actually built to function with a small fraction of the readers contributing on a monthly basis. When we struggle to get 1% of the Readers to respond with a contribution during the course of a funding drive, that simply isn't reasonable. Help out a bit, and consider the Sustainer Subscriber option. @ $10./mo you skip the fundraising emails altogether. That's better for everyone. / Marc Ash - Founder, Reader Supported News
