And free it will remain. Several years ago, however, I initiated an annual, month-long &#8220;May Day&#8221; appeal for self-imposed subscription fees (i.e., donations) and renew that appeal every year at this time.<\/p>\n<p>Please determine the amount you wish to contribute, if any, and click the Donate button at the top of the right sidebar.<\/p>\n<p>FAQs: How much should you donate? Again, that&#8217;s for you to decide. It depends on how much you like, and value, &#8220;Your Weekly Politickle.&#8221; For a one-year (52-week) subscription, for instance, you might contribute $5.20 (10 cents a laugh).<\/p>\n<p>Can you contribute more? Of course, you can. Far be it from me to stifle a generous impulse. Rest assured, there is no maximum donation amount and all contributions will be gratefully accepted, no matter how large.<\/p>\n<p>Must you contribute in order to continue receiving &#8220;Your Weekly Politickle&#8221;? Of course not. It&#8217;s voluntary, remember? Must you contribute in order to terminate your subscription? Again, no. (But that&#8217;s an interesting idea.) Are donations tax deductible? Afraid not. Politickles.com is a no-profit, not a non-profit, organization.<\/p>\n<p>Please make your donation today, and pass this appeal on to all your like-minded friends, relatives, and acquaintances.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2012 marks the 15th Anniversary of &#8220;Your Weekly Politickle,&#8221; which has been provided free of charge online and to email subscribers since 1997!
