Because we are extremely frugal in the control of expenses, LouisianaVoice is not one of those news services that requires thousands of dollars a week just to survive. That’s a lot of pressure.
We’re pretty much low-budget because we have to be. Though the plural “we” is used frequently in posts, it’s really an “I” operation. I am the sole proprietor and the only staff writer. I can’t be everywhere at once, though I try to be in as many places as possible.
Despite that, there are expenses. That’s why I come to you twice a year – October and April – to ask for your support. Occasionally, I’ll have a book offer that brings in a few bucks but basically, this is our only source of income.
Fortunately, we’re not too far from our goal of $2500 for this six-month period (that’s only about $400 a month), so please help with what you can if you like stories like the one above this.
I know it’s been tough coming off the pandemic shutdown only to plow head-on with runaway inflation, so I’m not asking you to give if you cannot afford it – only if you feel comfortable helping. If so, click on the big, oblong yellow DONATE button in the column to the right of this pathetic post and follow the directions to give by credit card. If you prefer, send a check to Capital News Service, P.O. Box 922, Denham Springs, Louisiana 70727.
As always, I humbly thank you.
Sorry but old Joe Biden has dimished all my spare change. Having trouble staying afloat.
Ronald, the only reason you don’t have any spare ‘change’ or income is because of your own stupidity. You can point your finger and cry all you’d like but you’re flat-out wrong and sound completely ignorant. Should really learn to stop typing.
Tomas, thank you so much. Your critical thinking and common sense are refreshing and very appreciated. Some commenters here like Ronald are just used to getting their way every time and crying when it doesn’t happen. I’m sure we can guess what his opinion on the 2020 election is…
