Dear Naked Capitalism reader, Generous reader John Z volunteered early to amplify this fundraiser. He had an unexpected windfall this year and wanted to share some of it with Naked Capitalism. As he said, " It keeps me sane in this crazy, crazy world." If you haven't found the time to contribute yet, please take advantage of his "double your donations" challenge! John Z will match the next 100 donations of $50 (and multiples of $50 like $100 up to his match total). Make this vote of confidence in your community a rousing success by going to our donation page now! Other readers have explained why they support Naked Capitalism. We are reduced to "Lambert blushes modestly" mode: From David: This is, I think, my fifteenth year reading NC, and I don't believe there has ever been a time when it has contributed more to my mental well-being. I've made my annual donation: you should, too. From Jeremy Grimm: Recent events collected and assembled together in order as they are in this post present a horrifying view of the state of the world and the actions of the u.s. polity. Naked Capitalism somehow wades into the current muck of news and analysis to extract good information. I do not know how it manages this, but I am glad it does. Many of the links are not easy for me to access because of the proliferation of paywalls so that I have become increasingly reliant on the independent analysis created for or curated for consumption on Naked Capitalism. And Dftbs: Thank you for fostering such a great community! With great respect and appreciation. And The Rev Kev: Naked Capitalism is my go to site for news and analysis, particularly analysis to get an idea of what is happening here and around the world. And we know that NC was all over the pandemic story right from the absolute beginning before cases started to crop up in other countries. Same with other developments which helps people get a heads up on what they should be doing. Without NC, the internet would be a bleaker scene indeed, especially when so many other voices have been silenced over the years. Great work, guys. Please make your contribution here, via check, debit or credit card, or PayPal. If you give by check (we like checks!), be sure to let us know by e-mailing us at yves@nakedcapitalism.com with "John Z Challenge" in the subject line. Thanks to John for digging deep to support this community, and I hope readers will respond in kind. And if $50 is a stretch for you, don't let that stop you from making a donation if you've been planning to but haven't had time yet. Every contribution helps us meet our goals. And the other important way to help is by telling others about our work, whether in person to friends, family, and colleagues, or in social media like Facebook and Twitter. So I hope you'll take him up on his fundraiser challenge in whatever way you can! Yves |
