Demonstrate at Bush's World Economic Summit to say: Money to Meet People's Needs, Not Bankers' Greed

Demonstrate at Bush's World Economic Summit to say:
Money to Meet People's Needs, Not Bankers' Greed

Saturday, November 15
Gather at 12 noon
F St. between 4th and 5th Sts. NW
in Washington, D.C.
(Red Line Metro to Judiciary Square)

The VoteNoBailout.org, ImpeachBush.org, the ANSWER Coalition and scores of other organizations are mobilizing for a demonstration on Saturday, November 15, when the Bush administration will be hosting heads of state from around the world, bankers, and the heads of the International Monetary Fund, World Bank and other international institutions to coordinate the ongoing transfer of money from working families into the pockets of the richest bankers.

Congress has caved to the Bush administration and provided $2.5 trillion in total in money and loan guarantees to the bankers. Meanwhile, more than 2 million families have either been driven from their homes because of foreclosure, or are seriously behind in their payments and risking foreclosure. When the people can't pay the interest on their mortgages, bankers drive them from their homes. But when the richest bankers can't meet their debts, the government bails them out with taxpayers' money.

On Saturday, November 15, the "Summit on Financial Markets and the World Economy" will be held at the National Building Museum located at 401 F St. NW. Join us outside to say "Money for Meet People's Needs, Not Bankers' Greed!"
