WESTERLY: America: From Freedom to Fascism Everyone dislikes paying taxes, but did you ever stop to think about why Americans have became so taxed and how the Federal Income Tax and the IRS came to be? We will watch the widely distributed 2006 independent documentary America: Freedom to Fascism by Aaron Russo, which alleges among a variety of claims that income tax is illegal. The film's claims about the illegality of the income tax in the United States have been critiqued as factually incorrect by some reviewers. The film has, however, developed a strong following. We will watch this film to start our discussion. RECOMMENDED BOOKS: "Constitutional Income: Do You Have Any?" by Phil Hart "Cracking the Code" by Peter Hendrickson As always tasty organic snacks will be served. IMPORTANT NOTE: Freedom Is Fundamental Book Club and Discussion Group is NOT advocating that people not pay taxes or refuse to file tax returns.

Thursday Book GroupBright Lights, Big City Event: Thursday Book Group
Bright Lights, Big City
Thursday March 25, 2010
2:00 PM until 3:15 PM
With the publication of Bright Lights, Big City in 1984, Jay McInerney became a literary sensation, heralded as the voice of a generation. 26 years later, the book still stands out as a stunning example of late 20thC American fiction, and as a novel that defined a time and place like no other. Rough, raw, and written in the unusual 2nd person voice, McInerney’s first novel has earned its place in the 20thC American canon. Please call or email to register, books are available at the circulation desk. All are welcome.
