AS PROMISED, HERE IS THE THE WEBSITE INFORMATION FOR THE CONGRESSIONAL OVERSIGHT PANEL OF THE TARP FUND.
THE GIST OF IT IS THAT BANKS ARE BEGINNING TO REPAY THEIR LOANS AND THE POWERS-THAT-BE SEEM TO THINK THE FUND HAS OFFSET ECONOMIC PANIC.
I SAY NO IT HASN'T. IT HAS SIMPLY MADE US 'LITTLE PEOPLE' REALIZE THAT WE ARE ON OUR OWN AND WE HAVE TO MAKE IT WORK... IN OTHER WORDS, IT KEEPS US QUIET AND DOCILE. FOR HOW LONG, I'M NOT SO SURE.
PRESIDENT OBAMA STARTED OFF THIS WEEK SAYING HE WAS HE WAS GOING TO END THE TARP FUND, AND EVEN BETTER, IT DIDN'T COST AS MUCH AS THEY THOUGHT. SO HE PLANNED TO REALLOCATE THE FUNDS INTO A JOBS-CREATION PACKAGE.
THIS ANNOUNCEMENT WAS QUICKLY RETRACTED, NOT BY THE MAN HIMSELF, BUT BY THE TREASURY DEPARTMENT. THEY ANNOUNCED THURSDAY THAT THE PROGRAM WILL BE EXTENDED THROUGH OCTOBER OF 2010.
WHAT THE HELL!
HERE ARE A FEW LINKS TO HELP YOU CATCH UP.
DON'T FORGET TO LISTEN IN TO THE SOAPBOX EVERY FRIDAY, 1-2 P.M. ON CAL STATE LONG BEACH'S GLOBAL RADIO STATION AT KBEACH.ORG.

Dear President (on health care)
My post to Obama’s Facebook about healthcare 8/19
Here's the deal. WE THE PEOPLE support a public option. I am a student/single mom. We don't have insurance for two reasons... #1- we can't afford it... #2 we don't trust it. I am at this moment watching Sicko for the 3rd time and getting angry all over again. I just read an article on the health "expo" (for lack of a better word) held at the Forum in Los Angeles... and I'm fuming at the fact that you shut down the public option.
My goals at this point are to get my education and try to find work in another county, a socialist one with universal health care along with other blessings. I hate living in a place that puts making money for corporations ahead of protecting their citizens.
WE THE POEPLE voted you into office for change, not compromise. Please keep this in mind....
Not that I expect this to be read admist the thousands of other FB comments.... but maybe, just maybe .... It will be taken to heart.
All Love, Kiva Hewett
