Welcome to The Cake Party!



Our political system is log-jammed by people that disagree, not on their underlying values, but rather  on the basic facts.  In a free and open debate, you can have your own opinions and values, but if you are honest, you have to admit we all share the same facts.  The cake party is dedicated to bringing the facts to light so that people are free to choose what they really want for our society instead of merely having to offset the votes of people who disagree with us and shouldn't.



Path to action
* First look over the General pamphlet or the Economics One-Pager in the Resource center and look into the learning main items below.
* Second, Consider registering with the Facebook page.
* Third, sign up in the sign-up page on this site.  For further granularity, join one or more of our email lists (initially join the two main google groups: thecakeparty-austin or thecakeparty)  Send an email to jeff@thecakeparty.org if you are unable to join.
* Fourth, look over our action committees (FISTs) and see if there is one you feel comfortable joining
* Fifth, rock the vote and get anti-growth, anti-liberty, and corporate power candidates out of office.  Remember that as we fix things in our local races we can bring more power to bear nationally.
