What is the theme of the president’s speech?

During a speech yesterday, President Obama offered some ideas on how to create new jobs and help out the country’s economy. Offering tax breaks to small businesses, expanding some of the government’s stimulus programs, and spending more money on infrastructure projects things like roads, bridges and water systems. The thing is, all of that costs money and that’s where the TARP comes in. That’s the Troubled Asset Relief Program, the financial industry bailout passed last year. The bailout ended up not costing as much as expected and President Obama thinks the extra could be used to help out in other ways.
