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.)

Steve, have you noticed that there is an 'iSteve' mockumentary about Steve Jobs coming out soon. It comes up when I google iSteve along with pics of you and jobs on the right of the screen. Hopefully you get some more hits as a result.
Take Bitcoins? It's fairly easy to set up if you don't.
Done. The most thoughtful and interesting blog I have come across.
wow the WePay option is the most painless way I've contributed to iSteve yet. It just worked, unlike PayPal which I'll just call PainPal because of how annoying it's been over the years.
Done.
Incidentally Mark Krikorian gave some excellent Senate testimony this morning detailing the hollowness of the new amnesty bill, and the end of which he was summarily cut of by Sen. Leahy, to be followed by a simpering proponent of the bill mouthing platitudes. It's on C-span.
Krikorian's book on immigration reform was disappointingly weak, but the guy can really talk. He's Armenian fwiw.
steve,
get a bitcoinpublic wallet at blockchain.info or download a private one at bitcoin.org
put your wallet address up somewhere on your site. you will get a LOT more donations. it's fast global anonymous easy and hard to trace.
i would definitely send you some.
What's your bitcoin address?
Aside from the obvious, what's the difference between tax deductible and non-tax deductible contributions? Does one not go to you or is not usable for certain purposes?
And if you weren't aware, bitcoins can be converted to "real money" with an account at mtgox.com . Also, it will provide you with a permanent wallet address to receive bitcoins.
It can be a slight pain to set up, but once it is done it's smooth sailing.
