The question is not whether these policies work, as we’d define working, or not - they don’t.
The question is, does he know they don’t produce wealth for everyone, and is he doing it on purpose.
Anyone who thought Obama’s policies would work as he promised doesn’t know basic economies.
Not only do they not produce wealth for everyone, they don’t produce wealth for ANYONE. They only redistribute wealth. And not from rich to poor, but from producers to the well connected.
