Revelations about JD Vance

What’s next, the shocking revelation that h eats oatmeal for breakfast? Really scraping the bottom here, folks.

This is a normal speaking fee for a bestselling author.

And then people tell me to take Politico seriously as a news source.

  1. Generally it’s the value someone can get for using his time in other ways.

    Then there’s the money-laundering aspect for anyone part of the regulatory apparat. Which is a reasonable critique for law-makers.

    Finally, independent contractors have a PITA/affection up/down-charge for doing business with some clients.

    It’s the “what it will cost you (yes, you, personally) to purchase this chunk of my time, craftsmanship, et al.”

    For some it might be “a check for $1”, for others a thousand times face value. One of the top ten most popular youtubers in the world donated 3h of his day to speak at a small town library gratis, simply because they’d been kind to him when he was a teenager.

    For the monsters who created DIE, critical race and gender theory, the cult of climate stasis, heterophobia, and transgender-identities for children, to wit: the Academy; 100,000k upcharge is too cheap.

    1. The value to students of Vance’s memoir with its emphasis on resilience, self-reliance and hard work is the opposite of Kendi’s that teaches them to feel sorry for themselves.
