End The Fed!
WHAT: National End The Fed Day
WHO: 50 to 100 protesters
WHERE: East of Kiener Plaza on Broadway - Protest will proceed around
the Fed building
WHEN: 11/22/08 from 12pm-1:30pm
WHY:
End the Fed! Activists believe that the Federal Reserve Bank, through
its inflation of the money supply and the distortion of free markets
resulting from its intervention, is responsible for the current
financial crisis. They also hold that the current round of "bailouts"
and federal government nationalization further inflates the US dollar,
disrupts the proper functioning of markets and will, ultimately, serve
to plunge the nation into an even more severe crisis.
The purpose of the rally is to call attention to the need for honest
money, sound monetary policy, and an ending of the private banking
cartel (i.e. the Fed) in order to end the devastating and unnecessary
boom/bust cycles and endless inflation.
The Rally will be totally peaceful and lighthearted in nature. Clever
costumes (of a non-threatening and totally non-violent nature) are
welcome.
All attendees will receive a CD by G.Edward Griffin, the author of the
widely read and respected "Creature From Jekyll Island: A Second Look
at the Federal Reserve".
End the Fed! Supports the passage of H.R. 2755

legislation which would repeal the Federal Reserve Act.
Rallies will be held in the following 39 cities:
Boston, Philadelphia, New York City, Buffalo, Cleveland, Cincinnati,
Pittsburgh, Richmond, Baltimore, Charlotte, Atlanta, Birmingham,
Jacksonville, Miami, Nashville, New Orleans, Chicago, Detroit, St.
Louis, Little Rock, Louisville, Memphis, Minneapolis, Helena, Kansas

The Federal Reserve is not the first central bank in U.S. history.
Thomas Jefferson railed against central banking, as did Andrew Jackson,
Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, Barry Goldwater, and John F. Kennedy.
