No. Mr. Obama became president in 2008, having inherited a really bad economy from President Bush. While not everyone will agree on how effectively he addressed America's economic problems, there is no evidence that he made people poor. It is true, however, that the top 1% have reaped the greatest benefits, but this has been true since Ronald Reagan was president: evidence shows the rich really have gotten richer, while the poor and middle-class have struggled to keep pace in an economy where wages have not grown and the cost of living has increased. But that cannot be blamed on President Obama (nor on any one president); there were a combination of factors that led to the income inequality we have today.
