**********************

A government that operates without transparency and integrity while continually mortgaging our children’s future is a recipe for disaster.

A government that cozies up to large monied interests and looks to redistribute wealth leaves a large swath of America totally disenfranchised.

This government, as described above, occupies space on both sides of our political aisle.

Hard working Americans are voicing their discontent, if not total outrage, at our government via a movement that is sweeping our nation. While the political elite would like to dismiss this movement, and the media would like to marginalize it, the Tea Party movement is gaining traction and momentum.

Please join me this Sunday evening April 18th from 8-9pm ET as No Quarter Radio’s Sense on Cents with Larry Doyle Is Having a Tea Party. I will be ‘having tea’ with Matt Clemente and Brendan Steinhauser of Freedom Works, a grassroots organization that is making an enormous impact on our national political and economic landscape with the Tea Party movement:

Founded in 1984, FreedomWorks is headquartered in Washington, DC, and has hundreds of thousands of grassroots volunteers nationwide.

What We Do
FreedomWorks recruits, educates, trains and mobilizes hundreds of thousands of volunteer activists to fight for less government, lower taxes, and more freedom.

Why We Do It
FreedomWorks believes individual liberty and the freedom to compete increases consumer choices and provides individuals with the greatest control over what they own and earn.

How We Do It
FreedomWorks’ aggressive, real-time campaigns activate a growing and permanent volunteer grassroots army to show up and demand policy change.

Tea Is Served

Posted by Larry Doyle on April 4th, 2009 4:45 PM |

I strongly believe Congress and the Obama administration know that the American public has no appetite for further government bailouts. This public demeanor presents a challenge for a government that has gotten used to writing big checks for Wall Street, the Stimulus, and automotive companies.

What is the federal government to do for municipalities, insurance companies, commercial real estate companies, or others who may go bankrupt?

Secretary Geithner has laid the groundwork for government takeover of institutions deemed to present systemic risk. How that power is effected or implemented will be very interesting. (more…)
