Today congressional democrats voted to pass a $30 billion government fund for possible lending to small businesses by community banks.   I say possible because there is no mandate included in the measure…just the availability of funds if banks are interested.  On a positive note, with bank leveraging, the loans could reach $300 billion.  That would certainly have an impact on tight credit markets and would hopefully lower unemployment numbers accordingly.
