The Broward County Commission is meeting November 8th to discuss a proposal from the County Administrator, Bertha Henry, to start requiring a permit in order to engage in free speech on County property. Under the proposed restrictions, in order to engage in speech on Broward County property you will have to obtain a permit 3 days in advance. You may not engage in more than 5 days of continuous activity. No tents or sound amplification devices. So far no specific time has been announced for when the commissioners will vote on enacting the permit requirement for free speech. We need people to show up for the hearing so that this does not become a law.

wow 50 tons of grub for charities, now they can grow their own and be self sufficient like they were before.

Ron Paul's Free Competition in Currency Act.

Quote of the Day: "Congressional oversight of the Fed amounts to about twelve hours of hearings per year, and that's as far as it goes. Of those twelve hours, no more than five or ten minutes goes to any one Congressman, who has the opportunity to ask at most one question of Chairman Bernanke every six months. To claim that this is effective oversight is laughable." - Rep. Ron Paul
Ron Paul began hearings about Federal Reserve transparency on Tuesday, October 4. We agree with Congressman Paul -- the Fed is unconstitutional. It should be abolished. Barring that, it must at least be audited.

Congressman Pauls' Free Competition in Currency Act will accomplish both things: Transparency now, abolition eventually.

This is why I sent the following letter to my elected representatives. You may copy it or borrow form it to send a letter of your own.

I support Federal Reserve transparency. I think the Free Competition in Currency act is the best way to achieve that. Here's why . . .

Let Americans choose what they want to use for money -- gold, silver, or some other form of currency. Then the Federal Reserve will then have to compete to get people to use Federal Reserve Notes (FRNs).
Competition will require the Fed to become transparent. No consumer will consent to use FRNs if the Fed won't consent to be audited. How else could a consumer know the value of an FRN? Only an audit could verify the number of FRNs the Fed is creating.
This new competition-induced transparency will also force the Fed to stop inflating the number of FRNs. The Fed's legalized counterfeiting will end. And if the Fed doesn't stop, then it will end, as companies with bad products always do.
For ten years Congress has imposed privacy-destroying legislation on the American people, saying, "If you're not doing anything wrong, you have nothing to hide." Well, shouldn't that rule apply to the Fed?
If it has nothing to hide, then it should submit to a thorough audit.
I don't want you to exercise political influence over the Fed. And I certainly don't want to abolish the Fed if it means having an identical monetary monopoly run by the Treasury Department. Instead . . .
I want to choose what I will use as currency, free from coercion.
I want to make the Fed transparent and accountable, by making it compete.
Please co-sponsor the Free Competition in Currency Act.
