Tax Protest

Still energetic after the Tea Party? Then head for the main Chicago post office on Canal Street for the annual tax protest. It is likely that there will be a sizable crowd, particularly as this is coming on the heels of the Tea Party, and there could be press.

Here is a great website with lots of information to help answer leading questions you may be asked (e.g., interest on the national debt was the third larget line item in the budget BEFORE the bailouts started.)

The Chicago Libertarian Party May Meetup

All ages can attend.

The Chicago Libertarian Party starts its business meetings at 7pm. The business typically takes about an hour to get through, after which we stay around for a couple of hours socializing.

Feel free to show up any time after 6:00. The business portion of the meeting is open for everyone to attend. Now is a great time to get involved, as we work begin the groundwork for local elections in 2010.

The Lincoln Restaurant is near the intersection of Lincoln, Irving Park and Damen. There is parking, and I believe that the Irving Park brown line station is open again.
