She also keeps an eye on the family budget: the King's annual income is $42,000, and fixed expenses of $27,000 leave the royal household only a $15,000 margin. After lunch, palace chores...
...free, high-energy source that will drive us wild into the streets of America yelling and screaming and tearing down everything that would keep people slaves," says their 26-year-FRIEDMAN old manager and mentor, John Sinclair, who also runs the group's hippie-style communal household in Ann Arbor, Mich. Sinclair and the MC5 are self-styled "musical guerrillas," who flaunt their memberships in a minuscule left-wing organization called the White Panther Party (sample plank in its platform: "Total assault on the culture by any means necessary including rock 'n' roll, dope and obscenity...
