it’s like who pays most US taxes... yes the rich do get socked
.............though I have donated a couple times, I confess I am a Freeploader.
I will send in some bucks tonight.
I have always wondered though why we just don’t have a subscription price that you have to pay each month, or quarterly or annually or you get cut off. No doubt there is a good reason why things are not set up that way but if there is I don’t know it.
Kind of like America
I always notice when I see a real nasty poster
South bashers and race baiters are not donators
You know why.....they dont support us ideologically or financially
Anti freepers...just here to point fingers
Such is the internet I guess
BTTT
Bump...from a monthly donor.
Give it a try.
Btw
Anyone can 20 bucks a quarter
If they can’t they shouldn’t be posting
They should be working
Anything...
Just tightwads or lazy
It truly would be wonderful if the other 95% could give at least $5 a month. TRULY WONDERFUL!! You know, Jim could relax a bit and devote more effort on assisting all of us in our goal of maintaining freedom.
Come on, 95 percenters!! Join the gang!

Just wanted to say I stayed out of the bars last night and sent in an extra $20. If I can do it, anyone can! :)
That is exactly the reason why I donate. This site is worth every penny.
Several years ago I dropped my subscription to the local football digest (newspaper); $50.00 twice a year... That now goes to Free Republic.
How many of you that freeload check FR at least twice a day...
JOIN THE GAME...
Done!
I bet if FR management got rid of obnoxious morons like humblegunner it’s fund-raising drive would be wrapped up by now.
Frankly, I think the attacks on fellow freepers for supporting “other” conservatives deters them from donating...relegates them to silence and closed wallets and prevents a real dialogue among patriots — particularly from Texas where oil royalties and “help wanted” signs are making us rich. I’m a monthly donor, but I know I’ve withheld funding in the past because a handful of loudmouths on the site got too mean and unreasonable and literally targeted and bullied me. Really poisoned the environment. Lots of people share/shared my opinion on this. My skin has thickened substantially, but I know many people love and need the site and would donate but feel they are second-class citizens due to Bill Ayers type tactics by a few. Just my input. Still love the site. America needs it. Thank you.
I don’t think this would have happened in the old days of FR...people were eager, jumping over each other figuratively to contribute to this great forum....
BTTT
I have been a monthly donor for years. When I received a layoff notice late last year, I reluctantly stopped my monthly donations. I then realized that I still had a roof over my head. I still had food on the table. But I felt so guilty not supporting FreeRepublic. It was not long at all before I resumed my monthly donations.
Please, support FreeRepublic!
Don’t be a FreepLoader!
That is true!
Spent a decade as a grateful lurker, then became a member. Another decade before I felt brave enough to post.
And then I became convicted that I was taking, but not giving, to one of the most important websites in the world. I happily repented and have become a monthly supporter.
Please consider doing the same - even if it’s a small amount. It quickly adds up.
Thank you Jim for your hard work, and your son’s too.
