Second: You can make a tax deductible contribution via VDARE by clicking here. (Paypal and credit cards accepted, including recurring "subscription" donations.) UPDATE: Don't try this at the moment.
Third: send money via the Paypal-like Google Wallet to my Gmail address (that's isteveslrATgmail.com -- replace the AT with a @). (Non-tax deductible.)
Here's the Google Wallet FAQ. From it: "You will need to have (or sign up for) Google Wallet to send or receive money. If you have ever purchased anything on Google Play, then you most likely already have a Google Wallet. If you do not yet have a Google Wallet, don’t worry, the process is simple: go to wallet.google.com and follow the steps." You probably already have a Google ID and password, which Google Wallet uses, so signing up Wallet is pretty painless.
You can put money into your Google Wallet Balance from your bank account and send it with no service fee.
Or you can send money via credit card (Visa, MasterCard, AmEx, Discover) with the industry-standard 2.9% fee. (You don't need to put money into your Google Wallet Balance to do this.)
Google Wallet works from both a website and a smartphone app (Android and iPhone -- the Google Wallet app is currently available only in the U.S., but the Google Wallet website can be used in 160 countries).
Or, once you sign up with Google Wallet, you can simply send money via credit card, bank transfer, or Wallet Balance as an attachment from Google's free Gmail email service. Here's how to do it.
(Non-tax deductible.)
Fourth: if you have a Wells Fargo bank account, you can transfer money to me (with no fees) via Wells Fargo SurePay. Just tell WF SurePay to send the money to my ancient AOL email address steveslrATaol.com -- replace the AT with the usual @). (Non-tax deductible.)
Fifth: if you have a Chase bank account (or, theoretically,other bank accounts), you can transfer money to me (with no fees) via Chase QuickPay (FAQ). Just tell Chase QuickPay to send the money to my ancient AOL email address (steveslrATaol.com -- replace the AT with the usual @). If Chase asks for the name on my account, it's Steven Sailer with an n at the end of Steven. (Non-tax deductible.)

"the unique taste of millions": how very American.
I got the first for my birthday yesterday. Released on the same day, in the midst of our celebration of America Junior's birthday!
It's called satire, dearieme.
Re: dearieme's comment. Yes, there is a lot of conformity in America, and a lot of conformity masquerading as dissent, but not nearly as much as there is in the groupthink leftist bastion that is Western Europe today.
Incidentally, I happened to read a bit of Bill Bryson's book "Made in America" today, wherein he chronicles the constant sneering criticism of America made by Brits starting in the early 19th century. I see some British traditions are still alive and well (perhaps not many - due to impinging multiculturalism - but some!).
stuffwhitepeoplelike and War Nerd have to be two of the best sites ever. Along with isteve.
Steve, I just have to add this in your honor -
quantify?
What? No book review on the amazon site for the war nerd?
Steve you must give a review.
I think the exile.ru site is on the verge of going out of business.
$11.20? $10.85?
Steve, when you get your dream and publish that Solzhenitsyn book, I think you should think higher than these.
$10-12 for new books: Last year's discretionary spending is now going to pay gas and food bills. So there is less pricing power in the book business today.
Starbucks just announced a 600 store closing along with a 200 store expansion plan. Look for the 200 new outlets to be delayed or never happen. There is less pricing power in the coffee business today also.
Even though the media can't stop talking about inflation, the price of books and everything else you don't need to survive will be falling from here until the real estate market finds a bottom. That could be years from now.
Books especially are subject to online piracy. Internet piracy for books and music among younger people has been well over 50% rate for years. In the oncoming deep recession that rate will spike out of 'necessity'. Talk about a lack of pricing power.
Hopefully we won't undergo complete Chinafication during an extended downturn: We come out on the other side with zero respect for the concept of intellectual copyright and the value of protecting authorship of ideas.
I don't know why blogger prevented the link I posted but it was to stuff white people like, winner #5 - Statistics.
