I have no intention to enable this. My blog exists primarily (I hate this term) to promote my personal brand. It's something to which I can point to demonstrate my knowledge and skills in my professional areas of expertise, plus occasionally a soapbox. I don't want to monetize that directly because that would turn me from "the friendly dude who knows about X" to something more like a streetwalker, and I don't want that. Speaking just for myself, of course.
