Banking Reform.
He's treated the banks with more reverence than any President in history, and instead of actually pushing for reforms he is trying to regulate the pay of the bank CEOs. All that's doing is creating a situation where banks like Citigroup lay off 100k workers and lose 7billion per quarter in order to hurry up and pay back the government so they can give their CEOs whatever the hell they want.
Stop pussyfooting around and put the old regulations on investment banking so the credit can start to flow and we don't have to worry about the bubble popping again (or continue to deflate).
