Earlier this week I gave you some exclusive information…and I’m here to give you more details.
Here’s the Facebook event, if you are unfortunate enough to have a FB account.
And here’s all the info you need:
Seminar on Government Fiscal Responsibility (or lack thereof)
September 3 · 9:00am – 12:00pm
916. S. Wabash, Chicago, IL
The root of many of the problems facing America today can be traced to how fiscally responsible government is. This includes the weakening of the US dollar and the massive debt taken on by all levels of government. Little scrutiny is given to the main culprit behind the bailouts and excessive government spending, that being the Federal Reserve System. This seminar will educate citizens and activists on how and why America’s financial problems are happening, and what can be done about it.
9:00am Doors open
9:20am Introduction
9:30am Government Budgeting Gimmicks and the True State of Government Debt – Sheila Weinberg
10:20am Break
10:40am Origins and Operation of the Federal Reserve, Inflation, Recessions – Savannah Liston
11:30am Debrief / Conclusion
11:45am Event ends, cleanup
12:00 noon Doors close
This is a short, but effective and incisive class provided by our two esteemed presenters.
Sheila Weinberg, CPA, is the founder and CEO of the Institute for Truth in Accounting, which was formed in 2002. Ms. Weinberg earned her Bachelor of Accounting degree from the University of Denver. She received her certified public accountant credential in 1981. Her editorials have appeared in USA Today and the Chicago Tribune. She has been a guest on national and local television and radio shows. http://www.truthinaccounting.org/
Ms. Weinberg has the rare ability to translate the complex and confusing methods of government budgeting and accounting into terms everyone can understand. She will cover the true financial states of the US and Illinois, show how government budgeting and accounting differs from the private sector, and recommend actions to get our state’s and nation’s finances back on track.
Savannah Liston recently returned from attending the 2010 Mises University, two weeks of intense study of economics, for which she received scholarships. At Mises U., she won the 2010 John David Fernandez Award “for enthusiasm and devotion in advancing the cause of liberty and free markets.” http://www.savannahliston.com/
Ms. Liston will cover the origins and operation of the Federal Reserve, fractional reserve banking, inflation, and how we get into and out of recessions and depressions. Ms. Liston will provide tools for activists to interest others in why their money and savings will soon be sawdust, get others interested in (and riled about) our monetary policy. and what they can do about it.
We have a wonderful facility, The Auditorium at the Interactive Arts and Media department on the campus of Columbia College, 916. S. Wabash in Chicago. The event is free of charge, and in cooperation with those providing the facility, we’re asking that people register in advance. Register by calling 847-421-7655, or email cjenner01@yahoo.com and put “Economic Seminar” in the subject line. Please note that a positive RSVP on Meetup or Facebook does NOT register you.
This part of the day’s festivities is not a rally, protest, or street action. It’s an informational seminar. For those planning on attending the afternoon rally (which we hope is everyone), we will have a safe place to check your signs and other rally / activist material. Information on the afternoon rally can be found at http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=141641075858018.
To hear either of our speakers for free is an incredible bargain. Both on the same day in the same place is a rare opportunity. Please consider attending, and forward this to your friends and groups.
