This year I saw my health insurance premium double from $500 to $1,000. My work has already announced that there will be no raises (for the second year), and our summer work has been seriously curtailed (severely cutting into my annual income). It isn’t just those who have lost their jobs that have seen the impact of this disastrous economy. I’m donating to NR because NR is an essential voice for the intellectual argument for liberty and the market — the surest guarantor of a reversal of these troubling economic trends. My donation is hence an investment in the victory of free market ideas . . . and I hope to see a return on my investment that far exceeds the small sum I’m contributing today!
