At the October 22 Policy and a Pint, a key theme that was discussed was the need for transparency in how the federal bailout of financial institutions proceeds. Transparency has also been a key word used by federal officials in describing the bailout.

Bailoutsleuth.com is good source of information on the specific measures as the bail out proceeds. They have filed a Freedom of Information Act request over bailout contracts with redacted portions. For more details:
