Everything that he has done has been good for the working class. Anyone who honestly believes otherwise has been brainwashed by the right-wing media.

Before anyone responds that I've been brainwashed by the left-wing media, I don't have to be told any of this from the media. I can see it in my bills each month.

"The 1.2 million households whose incomes put them in the top 1 percent of the U.S. saw their earnings increase 5.5 percent last year, according to estimates released last month by the U.S. Census Bureau. Earnings fell 1.7 percent for the 96 million households in the bottom 80 percent -- those that made less than $101,583."

The recovery that officially began in mid-2009 hasn’t arrived in most Americans’ paychecks. In 2010, the top 1 percent of U.S. families captured as much as 93 percent of the nation’s income growth, according to a March paper by Emmanuel Saez, a University of California at Berkeley economist who studied Internal Revenue Service data."
