The stimulus package, health care reform, and tax credits were all ways in which it was and is trying to achieve this goal. But when John Smith opens up the newspaper, he reads about “Bonus Day” on Wall Street. There is very little about how President Obama is directly working to inform the public of his plans to salvage a deepening recession and how the financial markets are affecting their daily lives...
