Putnam County Tea Party Meeting
2010-04-01 18:30 - 20:00 (America/Chicago) | American Legion Post #45
Come hear from Rick Rodriquez, the District Director for
Friends for Florida FAIR TAX. Rick retired from The Central Intelligence Agency in 2000 after serving 12 years. He also retired from General Motors as a District Sales Manager for Chevrolet Motor Division with almost 17 years of service.

Rick subsequently purchased a GM franchise and was the owner-operator of a dealership before going into semi-retirement at age 45. He also performed automotive consulting for The Federation of Automobile
Dealers Association (Canada) and served as moderator of several auto groups. Rick most recently was a licensed real estate sales representative for a local builder in Palm Cost where he resides with his wife Norma, of 47 years. They were married at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church in Pulaski, NY on April 21, 1962. They have two children, a daughter Candida Ruth, a son Rick III and two grandchildren.

Rick was graduated from High School with a GED and eventually with the 1961 class of James A. Garfield H.S. in East Los Angeles, California. He entered the U. S. Army in June of 1958 and served for almost five years in Europe and later, was honorably discharged in March of 1962.

Rick has been a volunteer since 2001 for the Flagler County Retired Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) providing support to Meals on Wheels and other associated volunteer assistance programs.

Rick’s involvement in The FairTax movement began in summer 2005 after listening to Talk show host, Neal Boortz’s program and reading the FairTax book. He subsequently attended a training session in Jacksonville where he was appointed District Director for Florida’s Congressional District 7. Rick was appointed to serve on the initial board of directors for Florida FairTax Education Association.

Rick believes that of all the legislation being touted within the DC beltway, the FairTax legislation is the only game changer that this country deserves. Once implemented, it will reverse the government’s interventionism, returning liberty and power where the founders of this nation intended when they authored the U. S. Constitution.

The FairTax levels the playing field for all and truly permits, without government intervention, a citizen’s pursuit of life, liberty and happiness.

Come out and learn why you must get behind the FAIR TAX now and why we may have the best chance to have the FAIR TAX introduced on the floor of the House of Representatives in 12 yrs.
