The current President really F'd us.

While he certainly had a hand in and contributed to it, I think the whole government from about 2000 on is to blame here for the most part. It's failed to protect us from the international corporations and basically allows them to run the show. Deregulation that fueled speculative bubbles fucked us and then we let the corporations decide how to fix the problem: give them freshly printed money for nothing.

The "please don't tank the whole world economy, here take this obscene amount of money" solution was in place long before Obama.
