Fed to Banks: "Lend Money"

From the Associated Press via Yahoo! News: "Paulson says troubled assets will not be purchased," by Martin Crutsinger--

Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson says that the $700 billion government rescue program will not be used to purchase troubled assets as originally planned.

Paulson says the administration will continue to use $250 billion of the program to purchase stock in banks as a way to bolster their balance sheets and encourage them to resume more normal lending.
