You confuse me with a devotion to an iconography i don't possess, Obama is just one of a series of players on the global stage we've witnessed since the culture of "greed is good" under Reagan to "no new taxes" with Bush senior to banking/securities/ insurance deregulation under Clinton & republican Congress. As i reminded one knee jerk the other day, i voted for George Bush for reasons not mainly economic , so dont confuse me with "librals" or partisan per se. What have you seen result of these policies that became a decades long voodoo cult still today of the mantra to the wealthy, but what you found from this was only massive incentive for the super rich to pad their positions. We've seen the higher productivity from techno age breakthroughs eliminate many middle-class jobs and only wage stagflation since , while “free trade” policies shipping all those jobs overseas. Perhaps due to regulation here as well whatever, but this has ensured super-profits to multinational corporations and their wealthy owner/investors that right now have over $1tril in monies sitting in offshore accts. Now as an investor myself which policy should i adhere , or you if this is good? If you are a middle class American who's lost his job overseas because of 2 decades of favoritism towards the wealthy corporate infrastructure that only ended up profiting in ways that weren't even dreamed of before and taxpayers who got left footing the bill for all this incredible boom time since 1980 till today? Why did it turn out to be such a tragedy, the reasons are manifold, blaming Obama for this solely is completely myopic, it is a republican majority in Congress one might add, so let them work their magic by saving the wealthy class which never trickled down anything at all & left you with a middle class threatened by extinction, basically screwed. Nice sounding mantra, the reality of the last two decades is another matter.
