Think its bad now? Wait till the republicans take over in January and implement all their pro big business plans.
I hate to tell you this, but pro-business policies are what drive an economy. That means jobs, sonny boy.
It is the anti-business policies of Barack Obama and the Democrats that have immiserated this nation since His Majesties election. It is also one of the reasons that they were so soundly defeated in this election.
The wealth gap began greatly widening under George w. Bush and has continued unabated due to the obstructionism committed by the Republicans in congress.
Horse manure! It is your party that is broadening the gap by failing to bring any Republican bills to the floor of the Senate; bills that would stimulate the creation of jobs, and encourage new business start ups.
Doesn't it only count those that are drawing unemployment benefits? If I am correct, then anyone that has exhausted his or her benefits but is still looking for employment is not considered unemployed therefore not counted.

Obama has only signed one true anti-business legislation and that was Obamacare. The Keystone Pipeline couldn't go through the Senate before getting to his desk. As for what Republicans can do, can they tax companies who want to offshore businesses to other nations? Oh wait they can't because that is "anti-business... What is more important, appeasing business who can't vote or the people who feel the brunt of some pro-business legislation like a laxed EPA of encouraging offshoring.
I think we will never know as they could remain higher than usual by shifting of the economy. That is what happened over years from liberal policies and spending in Europe.

You are mistaken. Obama's entire political philosophy is anti-business. Nothing he has done is pro-business.

How about you show some proof if you are going to claim rhetoric is fact. I am NOT an Obama supporter. I voted McCain in 08 because I didn't trust Obama and by 2012, he didn't do anything to gain my trust so I voted Romney. However besides being against traditional fossil fuels and actually signing Obamacare, what makes Obama so anti-business?
