For God's sake, Obama inherited all this mess, along with two ruinous wars. Within only two years, Republicans were screaming he hadn't cleared up their mess. They keep saying he's doing nothing, but their solution is do more of nothing! They want to take money from the poorest and give it to the richest: this is socialism for the rich.

Take some of the trillions, literally, they hid: invest in infrastructure, create jobs, ppl can spend their wages on useful stuff like cars, furniture, not hookers and coke, creating more wealth.
