which is INSANE

I will say it again, how much sense does it make to allow a billionaire to buy and own some of the most beautiful land on the planet, thus making that land hands off to the entire human population till the END OF TIME!!!???

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
