Why do liberals applaud Obama for causing the largest diversion of income equality in US history?

Before the Obama administration's 'QE Infinity' program we had correlated growth in wealth. Now the lower class has gone stagnate and the hyper rich are gaining at a breakneck pace.

Why do liberals pretend Obama in not a marionette of the ultra-rich?

Update:

Oh and I get that he 'talks' about "inequality" a lot.

Unfortunately the record shows he has 'done' nothing about it.

    Our people are victims of the biggest shell game to every be played. Democrats versus republicans. Liberals versus conservatives. Most of you have no idea what liberal even means in an fairness you have no idea what a real conservative is either. Meanwhile 535 rich guys in Congress, 9 rich guys in the Supreme Court, 16 rich guys in the Executive branch defend the system that protects the 400 rich guys who control almost 80% of the real wealth in the United States and quite a big chunk of the rest of the world. You think its Libs versus cons and that's where you lost track of the ball. It's always been haves versus havenots but they finally achieved a perfect system where we don't even know what war were losing.

    It's fascinating to me that liberals harp on about wealth inequality and their record on the issue is far worse than the GOP's.

    Edit: The reason for this is simple. The Democrats are in fact the party of the rich.

    Ah, so the worst economic down turn since the Great Depression occuring just before Obama took office, in part due to Republicans cutting banking regulations, along with the concurrent rapid expansion of automation in manufacturing and exponential growth of cheap Chinese labour markets has had nothing to do with the economic situation in the subsequent years?

    I just read that Cuban doctors are getting a pay raise:

    (This is true, I'm not joking)

    From $26 dollars a month, to the princely sum of $67.

    Hey, can I hear it from Hussein......Viva Socialism!...VIVA THE REVOLUTION!!...;-)

    PS; ATTENTION, "R"....there is NO SUCH THING as "trickle down economics."

    Ignorance may be bliss but it's also embarrassing...;-)

    Being black no one can criticize Obama or they will be called racists! So, whatever Obama does is okay because anyone who disagrees is a bigot!

    More poor people means more votes for democrats in elections. Easy to demonize rich people and blame republicans for the big difference.

    Handing out more food stamps and other government money than any other administration in history just removes incentive for some people to better themselves.

    Obama isn't in charge. The federal reserve is in control of the money, which means the world bank is running the free world. Obama is not even a blip on the radar. He's a figurehead. The liberals and the conservatives are all working for the same man

    "Before the Obama administration's 'QE Infinity' program we had correlated growth in wealth." is a falsehood.

    "Trickle-down" economics, which had been in-place some 30-odd years before Obama's election, directly caused the ginormous diversion of wealth and income to the already-wealthy, which is why we have extremes in wealth and income equality that we do.

    Christopher Jordan:

    "Trickle-down economics"

    "Voodoo economics"

    "supply-side" economics"

    are all synonymous.

    Your own ignorance must be hugely embarrassing to you...

    Because Obama did it.

    The wage gap has widened under Obama, yet they are silent on the issue.

    Or, they deny it lol

    Amazing! Glad to know the disparity in wealth has only occurred under Obama and I was only imaging the facts of the disparity before Obama..
