Obama has been unable or refused to increase the capital gains and dividends taxes for higher-income taxpayers, create a foreclosure prevention fund for homeowners, end income tax for seniors making less than $50,000, sign the Employee Free Choice Act, forbid companies in bankruptcy from giving executives bonuses, close Guantánamo Bay, Develop an alternative to President Bush's Military Commissions Act on handling detainees, centralize ethics and lobbying information for voters, allow five days of public comment before signing bills, increase the minimum wage to $9.50 an hour by 2011, or re-establish NASA. There are other broken promises, but these were some that I felt especially shameful.
