MEDIA ADVISORY: “Chicago Tea Party” Hundreds Prepare to Gather in Protest of Socialism
CHICAGO, IL – Following the lead of CNBC’s Rick Santelli’s call for a Chicago Tea Party, DontGo Movement (www.dontgomovement.com) is hosting their own at the Daley Plaza Civic Center in Chicago. Protesters will be dressed in black as a symbol of the impending death of the free-market system. The Tea Party will take place at 11:00am on February 27th.
DontGo Movement will be protesting, along with many other organizations, the fact that government intrusion doesn’t work. "A la the 1773 Boston Tea Party, we’re fed up with the taxation and the government takeover brought on with the Stimulus Bill and the numerous other bailouts. There’s only one proven way to create jobs and that is by cutting income taxes and wasteful spending" said Eric Odom, Director of the DontGo Movement.
The Obama Stimulus Plan will be borrowing an unprecedented amount of money. It is the largest giveaway in American History. Even the Congressional Budget Office says that the Stimulus Bill will create few jobs in 2009 and 2010, but will instead cause dangerously high levels of inflation as the Federal Government lets the Treasury printing presses run indiscriminately.
Communications Director Juliana Johnson states, “We will be heard. The politicians have not been listening to us and we are fed up. If a Tea Party is what they need in order to listen to us, then a Tea Party is what they will get.”
