He has helped the lower middle class. Wages have been rising. Unemployment was at all time lows.
Don't forget about efforts to lower prescription drug prices by setting price standards relative to other countries' markets.
Democrats never support lowering pharmaceutical costs or other health care costs because they want to keep the industry pumping as much growth/jobs/taxes as possible, not to mention keeping trade partners happy.
They love subsidies and mandatory insurance enrollment because that forces more money to be spent, i.e. the opposite of lowering costs.
Too bad so many people don't understand the difference between costs being lowered by subsidies and actual lowering of costs. They don't realize that if something they're paying a little for gets subsidized a lot, that those paying the subsidies are going to pass on those costs to them or someone else who will eventually find a way to pass it on to them.
