He should have been fired under Bush but I think the reason Obama keeps him on is to further destroy the economy so the US has no chance at all of rebounding. How did ya love those $42,000 diamond cuff the Mrs. was wearing? Bling, bling while people starve.

The Big boys have bling while the poor don't even have bread. The "leaders" have to keep up apperances. So what else is new?
