Best Answer

There are many forms of economic intervention which a President can use, particularly with the cooperation of Congress, and the American public understandably wants to have a healthy economy. While the President does not have unlimited power or unlimited control over the economy, he does have quite a bit of power and quite a bit of control, and so he is expected to make things work.
