but I think the world today is probably better, assuming you don't live in one of the war zones.
Wut? They world is a thousand times more chaotic right now. Existing tensions/wars/unrest in:
Libya
Syria
Ukraine
Iraq
Afghanistan
Israel
Palestine
Nigeria (w/Boko Haram)
That is a tremendous foreign policy failure regardless if you support BHO or not.
As far as economic recovery, you are correct although failed economic policies within those countries have a lot to do with their lack of emergence from the crash.

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.
