bama and Bernanke have been the biggest robber barons of them all, propping up the 1% at the expense of everyone else.


Okay I get what he is saying but did they have other choices given the meltdown and obstruction from the GOP from day one? Odd that Romney, Adelson and others were prime robber baron benefactors. Have you seen Las Vegas Sands stock price since Obama has been president?


The Sands stock price is up not because of Obama and easy borrowing costs but because of Macau. For the past 5 years, Macau has become a gold mine for gambling stocks.

Nothing stopping the little guy with good credit from borrowing at record low interest rates today a gift along with the housing crash from the 'bad guys".

The timing of health care reform and never going after the robber barons is where I have serious fault with Obama
.

You said it yourself.............due to the meltdown, Obama would have been a fool to go after any business person. The economy was hanging by a thread. Businesses were retrenching like the Taliban were in NYC moving east. He would have killed whatever business confidence was left by throwing people in jail. I don't understand why this concept is so hard to get.

AND THANK GOD, he go AFA through Congress when he did. It would be totally impossible to do so now.
