To be fair Obama was roasted heavily by the GOP when he let the Bush era tax cuts expire. Then after the GOP gained control of Congress, all tax increases was lost. I wouldn't claim it's his fault.
I hate replies like this. I DO NOT CARE what the GOP did. **** the GOP. Yes it was his fault. If Obama had been the person that Candidate Obama said he was going to be the (D)'s don't lose the House and Senate. Nobody forced him to renominate the total loser in Ben Bernanke. No one forced him to nominate the Wall Street ***** Timmy Geithner. No one stopped him from prosecuting the bankers that broke our laws.
With Capitalism when a business fails, it fails. If we had allowed the bubble to simply pop and things do as they will we would not have the huge wealth disparity we have right now.
Capitalism would have actually worked.
Maybe, but we don't have pure capitalism in the US, we have crony-capitalism. The biggest businesses in all sectors simply buy the government in order to get whatever they want.

I have always said this. We should of just let it fail and let the chips fall where they may.
Income inequality rose to record levels under Obama. We can indeed see that many of the jobs that left for overseas come back or the companies fund those they left jobless.
Obama when he ran for president ran on the same platform. Going after companies sending jobs overseas. He just didn't do anything about it.
This is maybe the one and only area I agree with Trump on. Then again, I agreed with Obama on it also.

Pretty much. It's the GOP's game. The (D)'s really need to quit playing it.
The job of a corporation is to make money. As the price comes down on the kiosks, even a penny an hour is too much. Minimum wage or not, kiosks are coming.
azz Holes all of them but they making their money but killing us. I think they want to reduce our population... all of us
My grocery store that I shop at put in four self checkout lines. I don't use them, I have in the past if it's just one item, but in general I don't use them.
Part of what annoys me is that I really doubt that corporations will offset the cost back to the consumer, if they are in theory saving money, it would be nice if prices came down, but I doubt that will happen.
