The Fight For Liberty And Freedom In America

This article describes the funding of Freedom Works that is contained in an internal report (available at bottom of article).  Over 80% of the funding for this "grassroots" Tea Party organization came from wealthy donors. Donations to Freedom Works are deductible from taxes.  Some of the money has been transferred to Super Pac's that used the funds to support GOP candidates in the 2012 elections.  Liberty and Freedom has a special meaning for those who fund Freedom Works.  It means freedom from taxation, and freedom from government regulations that limit the power of the super rich to do as they please.  It also means that Freedom Works is free to pretend that it is a grassroots educational  institute. It has finanical relationships with Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh to reach the grassroots with its freedom and liberty message.
