$40 for the fanclub is nothing. Break it down. 
$10 bootleg code. 
$10 vinyl single. ( then add shipping). 
Tshirt or other gift. $10-15. ( then add shipping.)
chance to purchase exclusive Pearl Jam merchandise. 
Chance for tickets. 
If you break it all down it's not that much. 

I'm going to complain that the bootleg codes expire....boo

They actually don't by the way.
I've never used any since they started the bootleg code thing because I always bought the CDs. I stopped by the CD boots a few years ago when I decided I had enough when I realized I still had a lot in the original shrinkwrap. I mean,d o I really need 200 live shows? Yes, I do, but it just takes a long time to listen to them all.
Was able to use all codes, about 10 of them. Got some good 2016 boots and all of the vaults (I only had the vinyl for most of the vaults).
It seems they only expire if you let your membership expire.

when I renew it tells me the bootleg code expires, I renewed in December and I think it said it was good until the end of February. not complaining about that, don't really care. but that's what the email said.

Ha, maybe I just got lucky. But just about a month ago I used every bootleg code I had every been issued. I tend to not read emails about my membership, so not sure what my said. I got both Wrigley 16, Telluride, Leeds, and vaults 4-7 (and maybe 1 or 2 more I'm forgetting). Just went on a frenzy and did it all back to back one night last month. Been a member before they did this bootleg thing and never once used a code, but they all worked.

I think the events going on in our country these days make most of us angry. We need a song like this one.  I like it.

Part of the challenge for me is they only write or comment about the events in our country if one party is in office. Is this a political rally or comment on society? If societal I'd like a more consistent message as weve had gun violence, wars, corruption...consistently over the last 15 years. 

While there's little doubt that they write songs in response to their political leanings, I don't agree they "only write or comment about the events in our country if one party is in office."
Just a quick glance at the catalog, here's some politically related songs:
While Clinton was president: WMA, Glorified G, Grievance, Do the Evolution 

While Obama was president: Mind Your Manners, Infallible

Wait, that's weird? Um...OK. I'll show myself out.

I may be weird, too, but I think this is great!

The analog item code expires each year. The bootleg codes are good until you use them. I get confused by this all the time.

So I was really really hoping I would be wrong and the song would be kick ass live...just listened to it and man am I bummed.  I just can't get into this one.

It isn't bout being just Rich, plenty of solid rich people who give and realize they can impact the planet in a positive way.
Its about being Rich and not paying contractors, Saying deport everyone yet you hire illegals to run your resort, mastering bankruptcy laws, getting dirty loans from Deutsche Bank/Russian Oligarchs, privatizing education to profit on it, polluting, using your $$ to scare people into doing what you want because you can fight and they cant, Killing big game animals and holding up an elephant tale as if you accomplished something by killing a fenced in animal, Grabbing women because of entitlement....

There are Rich people who don't feel like they are the victims

I mean how fucked up in the head can you be if you are worth billions and you think society is giving you the shaft

Also notice I was complimenting the song, I just dont like one line. Gotta shut harmful opinions like this down around here I guess

all he did was ask a follow up question to a statement you made. 

Ed being rich "by accident" doesn't negate him from criticizing someone else who is rich by design/greed. 

Right. Eddie's version of rich and Trump's version of rich and his administration's version of rich are completely unrelated IMO.

I got so much anxiety over what boot to pick, that I instead let the codes lapse... 

find the logic in that..

Totally off topic but it does seem a rubbish rule when you have essentially paid for it. It does seem that members getting value for money out of the subscription fee is low priority for 10c.

Ha, yeah, well, there's no accounting for taste obviously. But still.... objectively, what they're doing now isn't on the same level as what they were doing in the 90s or early 2000s. I mean, come on. 

Late 90s, no. I agree there.

But I like Lightning Bolt better than Backspacer, Avocado and Riot Act.

lb is better than avocado and riot act????

Yes.
