Around 2008-2011 he was definitely the most important/powerful person in the world.

He had the most thankless job if there ever were one. Its a shame most people will still hate his guts even though he steered the ship away from the biggest iceberg into a smaller one

word, his entire job is to make sure that the biggest group of degenerate gamblers (wall street) doesnt hit the fan. all while being unable to impose regulations that would help them achieve that. the literal retards in congress have that power. its usually the case that they dont even have the power to intervene until something shocks the system

He steered the ship away from an iceberg into a bigger one that's yet to come.

No. Creating heaps of $ to try avoid an iceberg kicks the can down the road and makes the problem much much worse

The problem with qe is it works in practice but does not work in theory.

If Bernanke was the Chairman in the 30s, we'd still be in the Great Depression.

Ben Bernanke opposes student loan relief because "some" with student loans go on to make lots of money. Then why not suggest a income limit to whom receives relief? Oh, is it because you are full of it and just want money funneled to rich people?

He did cause the Second Great Depression though, what do you think QE Infinity has done? All in the name of "stimulus" aka GDP, when what produces growth is proportional wealth distributions. Yikers. CPI was hedonically adjusted, he doesn't account for this. Also when most people discus inflation they mean monetary supply increase, which has increased 3-4 times, they aren't discussing CPI increases, which will inevitably show up later regardless, even if wages increase to compensate you still end with a deflated dollar, unless monetary supply is contracted to realign with population needs. Even if that occurs you still have proportional theft over the duration causing the Second Great Depression. On unemployment, again the statistics have been effected by redefinition, underemployed also needs to be factored in, but it's not as simple as supplying main street with additional liquidity to resolve this, a people's QE would have been more effective as funds go directly to consumer.
