I can't imagine how you get to your position. And "we should only care about freedom"- in what universe? Who only cares about one thing? You can sloganeer all you want, but it doesn't make a good argument- and "discussion" is futile when all that is on the table are slogans and generalities.

I see Obama as taking the reigns just after the Bush Great Recession, the largest economic disruption since the Great Depression. He gets blamed for the economy not recovering, I'm not talking Wall St. economy, but the jobs economy that most Americans depend on.

The Bush Great Recession happened right when globalization, cheaper labor countries, and robots taking jobs were really taking off. Those jobs are NEVER coming back. The current unemployment rate is probably the best we can hope for, while the Fed keeps QE going. It may get worse after.
