• “Dirty Little Secret”
– The All American Rejects
• Patron records = records of library visitors (library
patrons are simply people who use the library)
• Library footprint = what you’ve done in a library
– A “footprint” in the mud is your mark on a trail in the
woods. Your library footprint is your mark in that library
• PATRIOT Act requires libraries to keep and turn over
records of its patrons upon demand, without
warrant
Task 1
• 1. July 2012 cell phone service challenged the
constitutionality of an NSL, result was
increased Congressional oversight (more
monitoring by elected officials in Congress)
• 2. 5 bullet points on 189
• 3. 8,500
• 4. 250,000
Task 2
• Increase oversight (PATRIOT Act enforced by unelected gov’t
officials, Congressional reps are elected, so more oversight
means more protection from elected officials
• More safeguards
• Allow adversaries to appear against gov’t in court
• Considering proposals to:
– Restrict NSA from secretly collecting calling records
– Create permanent staff of lawyers for public
– Allow outside groups to file amicus briefs (testimony from a group
not a party in the case
• Companies to archive calling records, not gov’t to require a
warrant to get access
• Changes to Section 215
– Reducing length of time records are held (5 years)

In 1-2 sentences, summarize unemployment from the end of WWI to the beginning of trickle down economics in 1922.
1918 – 3%
1922 – 9%
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
At the end of WWI, unemployment was at around 3%, then tripled to 9% by 1922,
and TDE brought a decline in unemployment shortly thereafter.

Does this picture seem to support or oppose the idea of Trickle Down Economics? How can you
tell? *Be as specific as humanly possible! Use and identify what you see in the drawing! Don’t
assume that I know that you know it. PROVE to me that you know it!

Oppose: Person at top who needs help least gets the most; person who needs most aid gets
least. In between, the amount of water (aid) gets lower as the need for it gets higher
The artists’ point is that TDE fails to provide adequate aid to those who need it the most.
