There you go. That I agree with. But to me, Bernanke and Obama threw salt in the wound when they decided to bail out the top 1% with money from the 99%. That is my biggest objection to Obama. Had he not done that and had he forced the 1% to take the hit from the Great Recession, then I would have voted for him again. But he did not, so he lost my vote. I still haven't forgotten that Corzine is still a millionaire and walking around free, after he stole $2B from his customers.

What you can't or won't understand is that by bailing out the 1%, he was also bailing out the rest of population. If he hadn't, we would be in a similar mess as the UK.
