POPSBreaking: Treasury I-G Agrees to Probe ACORN those dollars were misused in anyway." "I am heartened by the agreement of the Treasury Department's Inspector General to examine the troubling financial questions that have been raised about ACORN," said Senator Collins. "This is the first step in the right direction toward much-needed transparency. As I've noted before, at a time when so many American families are facing difficult economic situations, it is completely unacceptable that even one penny of taxpayer money be misused. We must bring all agencies and groups that use taxpayer funds into the spotlight of accountability." Last week, Senator Collins and Rep. Issa made a formal joint request that seven Offices of Inspectors General, including Treasury, probe the activities of ACORN, a community advocacy organization. By Matthew Vadum

POPSBook Review: Warren Cohen on China's "Factory Girls" “Factory Girls” tells of the women of Dongguan, two in particular—the conditions in which they live and work, their aspirations, how they are changed by their experiences, and what these changes mean for China This is basically what happened in America during WWII when women joined the work force to fill the jobs left behind by men going to war. And the U.S. has not been the same since. China can expect a huge change in values and culture. Oh, and learning history in order to serve China, right. Trust me, this revolution is going to produce more people who will serve themselves before they ‘serve China’.
