Wow, is your memory really that skewed? Obama did lower taxes for income up to 250k. Part of the stimulus was tax credits and related items specifically targeting the middle class but also cutting taxes for everyone up to that point.
You can say the unemployment numbers are ONLY(which is a ridiculous argument) down because of people running out of it, but you all ignored the steady upswing in job creation which was a huge turn from the downward path of Bush job growth. Unemployment is at the end of the spectrum to go down in a recovery and its been showing signs of continued decline, yet you seem to practically delight in a % of a % uptick as tho it proves and validates your arguments. I'm sorry your hatred for our President blinds you so much you are willing to ignore or discount/nullify all the positives. Are some things bad? Of course. Are most things getting better? Yes. Are there always pitfalls that we can fall in to? Of course.
