It's much better than Word or AppleWorks.Where is the meetup group link on the flyer? I don't see it...
You're only looking at the first page. There should be two pages. It's near the bottom right in the corner if the page with RP's picture on it.
Where's the other page...?
I'm on a Mac as well. The .pdf opened fine and so did the .doc file. Open it with TextEdit.

Wow, thanks!
Want me to turn that into a .doc too?
Hello all!
I'm sure you've all heard and read Ron Paul's speech regarding the Tax Free Tips Act (TFTA).
And let me tell you, Ron Paul couldn't have possibly done anything better to arm his grassroots army. The TFTA is a golden opportunity!!
I edited a nice flier that someone else here made which contains the speech and then information about how to support the act and RP's president bid. You can find it here:
Tax Free Tips Flier
I did a test today and gave out the flier to all the restaurants and pizza joints in and near my route home from work...
It was an overwhelming success! I went to over 10 different places and only one did not accept the flier. Everyone else was very receptive and generally excited at having the opportunity to keep all their tips tax-free.
Therefore, I propose that other Meetup groups and ambitious individuals distribute the flier to EVERY restaurant, pizza place, bar, and other places with tipping in their area. Think of the impact this could have with minimal effort. I spent no more than 30 seconds at any one place and covered them all within 30 minutes or so. This was my basic approach:
"Hello, I'm just dropping in to inform you that there is legislation being proposed in Congress that would make tips tax-free. Since service-sector employees rely heavily on the tips they receive and would likely support this act, I hope that you can post this somewhere in your break room or kitchen for them to read."
That's all it takes. Sometimes they'll ask a few questions and that provides a good opportunity to bring up Ron Paul and his Presidential bid. I find it appropriate to leave him out of the initial push because it makes the flier seem more relevant and less politically motivated.
I'm now convinced that this is one of the most effective tactics to garner new support for Ron Paul and I implore others to take advantage of this fantastic opportunity!
