Recently, a large grassroots movement has begun to take place across the nation. Average citizens everywhere are organizing and holding tea parties to protest against blind and massive government spending. So far the turnouts have been very large, with parties taking place daily in every state across the country. Chances are, there is a tea party being held near just about everyone in the US at some point, with many cities holding monthly and weekly rallies. Everyone is encouraged to get out to a tea party and get involved.
The massive government spending must end and the debt must be paid down, otherwise the hole just gets deeper and will soon begin to fill with water. Action must be taken in order to ensure that the people’s voices are heard, so send a message by participating at your local tea party, and mail your representatives in congress a tea bag as a reminder of their duties to you the citizen.
