Well, it's not been half a year yet, but its closing in on it very shorty. What do you think about Obama so far?
Some issues that could be mentioned.
1. His constant deficit spending which he is confident will heal our economy and the spending will eventually be compensated for.
2. His advocacy of universal healthcare and his effort to get the system at least pertially into our country.
3. His tax hikes which recently passed through "cap and trade", which is essentially a tax on businesses who emit carbon. Many people say taxing during a recession can only harm and not help.
4. Many people think his stimulus package is only a temporary fix to a much deeper rooted problem in our economy, many also claim the recent GDP growth was only temporary and very similar to the growth seen during the 1930s under Roosevelt's administration which didn't necessarily fix the economy only made it appear to be healing.

I would like to keep this topic more focused on Obama's fiscal policies; however, if you would like to talk about foreign issues, moral issues, etc., you may.
