NRA, salaries, clubs, progressive democratic socialism
A few have said that the elks club, am legion were drinking clubs. I would not know. And, is that so bad, if true? Edit: Thought about it and they can be bad for some individuals, some families,sometimes for society, but are probably good in the whole. It is the drinking to excess that is bad. I had an in law uncle.......
Most or all of these big org have million dollar salaries with benefits. Big companies have huge salaries . Have heard that europe, asia , salaries not so inflated. Charities have huge collection costs, most of money does not go to benefit any but the charity organizeation. When I was young, March of Dimes would pressure us, thru the school teacher, to contribute.
NRA and the legislative branch do seem to be valuable for gun rights. If not there, then what would happen?
Recently, requested a replacement card- life member- digital request. Sent it out within
a month.
Asked via phone for a sample copy of am hunter, and the 2nd amendment one. Said could not, not set up for. I could cancel current Am Rifleman, and try different tho. Then , got a pro gun speech, upgrade my membership, donate, my will. Well, they do need money to keep their system going. It seems rather corrupt, so is politics, but we need systems, and that is how it is. We do not have a true democracy, and our system is not very fair. Nordic countries have progressive democratic socialism which combine capitalism and socialism. People seem to hate the very concept, despite the fact that our system is not very good. Perhaps, they think we will become like Russia, and China. How close are we right now? Trump would like to be a dictator, I think . Anyway, just random musings. Dont get bent out of shape, please. Just my general opinion of some issues.p
Many have said that the reviews and articles are pay to play. Therefore Wilson, Kimber etc.,expensive guns.Most gun mags are doing that. Supposedly the ethical mags, if gun is very bad, they dont review it .
