The bottom line is simple. Since Obama was elected, the buying power of the rich is increasing relative to the poor. That's a disparity that started long before Obama became president. In fact it began to flourish under Mr. Reagan and reached its peak under Mr. Bush. Mr. Obama has slowed the growth in that disparity but not stopped it thanks to the Rs who control the House.

The bottom line is simple. Since Obama was elected, the buying power of the rich is increasing relative to the poor. So if that is so they why are the Republicans fighting taxes for the rich. You are conveniently pushing the blame on Obama. I have said and I repeat, it is not Obama's intention to throttle the rich which happens to be the battle cry of Boehner and gang. What he wants is to open up opportunities for the poor. And the obstructionists in Congress are allowing that to happen. CLOSE THE LOOPHOLES. It just benefits the rich.
