Joe Biden to Charge High Prices for Autographed Book Copies
on July 20, 2017 at 10:07am
Many Democrats like to proclaim themselves champions of the middle class, and often lament how corporations charge too much for their services and don’t do enough to ease the burden on the average taxpayer.
However, these same politicians are often quite rich and treat the middle class like dirt when they don’t need their vote.
Former Vice President Joe Biden now appears to be joining the line of hypocritical Democrats with his upcoming book tour. This so-called “man of the people” is charging hundreds of dollars for his signature, The Daily Caller reported.
Tickets to Biden’s book tour will be going on sale soon, and people will have the option to purchase “VIP” packages, which will include a signed copy of Biden’s new book “Promise Me, Dad: A Year of Hope, Hardship, and Purpose.”
These VIP packages are being sold for hundreds of dollars. That’s a lot of money just for someone’s signature, and I don’t think a lot of middle class families are going to shell out that kind of money just to see Uncle Joe.
Politics and Prose, a Washington, D.C. bookstore that will host Biden, is selling VIP tickets for $448 dollars. That whopping price gets you a signed book and a “meet and greet” with Biden.
Limiting signed books to VIP ticket holders doesn’t appears to be specific to Washington, D.C. The Tennessean reported that Biden will be in Nashville, Tennessee for his book tour, and will only give signed books to people who purchase VIP tickets.
Paramount Theatre in Austin, Texas noted on their website that VIP tickets go for $325.
“Includes meet & greet and photo opportunity with Vice President Biden; Signed copy of Vice President Joe Biden’s new book PROMISE ME, DAD; Reserved premium ticket within the first 11 rows,” reads the description of what a VIP ticket will get you.
This book tour has also led to some speculation that Biden could throw his hat in the ring in 2020. However, if he does, he will have some explaining to do.
You can’t go out and proclaim yourself as a champion of middle class families who will fight against greed when you will charge hundreds of dollars just to hand out your signature.
