In fact, on December 27, 1989, AMFM was committing to secure $730,000 and on July 2, 1990, UST was referring to a conditional loan commitment of $700,000.
Initially, he pointed to "a fundamental error" that both the AMFM and the UST letters were based on "an erroneous assumption that Acorn would require $700,000 to construct and operate" the proposed station, whereas "the true estimate would have been approximately $150,000." Id. at 123.
Reinforcing the obstacle imposed by this condition is the testimony of an AMFM principal that AMFM had previously never arranged a loan directly from UST; instead, it had obtained loans from clients that were part of the portfolio managed by UST.

Self-destructive conflict within the movement, and its gradual conversion from self-supporting, self-reliant activism to a state of dependence on establishment funding and the symbols and situations of establishment approval.
As the movement's philosophy matures, it will be recognized that employment, housing, transportation, personal care, legal equality and the like are methods and intermediate sub-goals, not final goals--and that the central concern of independent living programs and the movement should become the life quality development of staff, clients, members and public.
Almost all establishments have attempted to appease, to delay, to defeat successful reformist movements by conferring prestigious titles, powers, and benefits on token and/or completely fraudulent individuals and groups as examples of their (the establishment's) "progress," and as the basis for arguments that further concessions would be unnecessary duplications.
