well not a thousand times more chaotic. But definitely more chaotic than 2009 that is for sure. But for the most part the rest of the world's economy is better now than in 2009. So the world is probably a better place for most people now than in 2009.

I really don't know what Obama has done to improve the world economy since 2009, though. It was going to bounce back anyway. You could say that TARP, the Stimulus, and QE have made things better, but yeah, if you pump TRILLIONS of fake money into the world economy over 5 years then things should probably improve. Not sure how much of that was Obama since it was all set in motion by October, 2008 anyway.
Maybe we should give Bush credit for saving the world economy, then.
