It's like candyland for rich people. Average people are thrilled their mortgages are relatively cheap. But that's chump change compared to the real money.

They raised a few taxes and lowered a few taxes; added some banking rules; regulated some markets here and there; shot a couple terrorists in the face but by and large the Obama crew has done nothing but accelerate the wealth gap at unprecedented levels. From day one Obama promised to address this issue. It's probably his number one concern and admittedly his number one failure.

I get it though. The other guys made it too difficult. Creepy bankers gonna creep. All along there was never anything he could do.
I'd put most of the blame on the GOP who have openly blocked everything and anything Obama has attempted to do. That the country has survived and is prospering is amazing.
