The Tea Party is about fiscal discipline and constitutional government in the halls of Washington and across the country.

Since when have leaders from ethnic communities across the country drummed up the nonsensical idea that the Tea Party is anti-minority?

Contrary to the contentions of many politicians, free markets and limited government are in the best interests of all Americans of all backgrounds.

From a free-market perspective, a businessman must rely on his power to present and persuade people to purchase his products and services. He cannot afford to discriminate against a prospective customer. Minority leaders who are bad-mouthing the Tea Party are undermining the most effective engine for change and respect in the public square.

Some may counter that segregation laws in the past were enforced because of the particular prejudices of the culture where they were built. Despite the widespread enforcement of the hateful segregation laws imposed against African Americans in the pre-Civil Rights Era South, most shopkeepers in the region opposed the restrictions, knowing that they would hurt their profit margin.

The Montgomery Alabama bus boycott only persisted as long as it did because the busline was subsidized by the state. A private firm would have desegregated at the first hint of public outrage from any core constituency of riders.

It was collusive big government which bankrolled racism from the beginning.

Big Government is the Biggest Problem for all Americans, including minorities.

If voters and consumers fear that they are not being treated fairly in the marketplace or in the public sector, the largest culprit is the unconstitutional growth of government, which in the name of safeguarding fairness and equal outcomes has institutionalized racism. State-run schools forbid parents from enrolling their children wherever they wish, forcing them to endure the run-down public school monopoly, which caters only to bureaucrats and unions, not to families and or the future of our communities.

Minimum wage laws, initially a perceived boon for out of work minorities, create unemployment and force up prices, decreasing the purchasing power of those struggling to work and those who cannot find a job.

Medical mandates like ObamaCare will deprive American of choice when it comes to healthcare. Loading another find on top of other onerous regulations does not spare minority communities from the high costs of health care or other core services.
