- His bail outs in most cases were excessive and in my opinion backward thinking since we were already in a huge economic crises and spending more money which we obviously can't spare is rediculous.
- His so called universal healthcare plan is yet another expense that we just can't afford.
Obama has made a few mis-steps and done some things I disagree with, but to call his presidency thus far "horrible" because of the fucked up economy isn't fair.
