Out of curiosity... And... an Idea |
|
How much does DU fundraise each quarter? I just followed someone's link to FREEPERLAND and they said their target was $68,000.
Surely we don't raise (or even need) that much...
So, what they hell do they need all that money for? What would they be spending it on? And for that matter - if they're getting more money from their members than DU is - why is our site so much better?
Do we have a 527? If not, why not?
This would be a great fundraising source for our candidates, and we could use the polling features to determine which candidates to support. It'd also magnify our ability to organize our efforts and to impact the process.
Rather democratic, eh?

4. I think you have to be a moderator |
|
There was a listing of what the donations went for a while back, satire that some anti-DUers took as serious. I can't find the link now, sorry. It was quite funny though

5. I believe that the owner |
|
of DU makes his living from running the board. At least that is my impression.

7. As for the Freeps and the $69K: they've got a large porta-potty bill. nt |
