Another reason Social Security Benefits did not go up this year

Just think, Mary Lincoln was taken to task for purchasing china for the White House during the Civil War.
And Mamie Eisenhower had to shell out the salary for her personal secretary from her husband's salary.
 
Total Personal Staff members for other first ladies paid by taxpayers

How things have changed! If you're one of the tens of millions of Americans facing certain destitution, earning less than subsistence wages stocking the shelves at Wal-Mart or serving up McDonald cheeseburgers, prepare to scream and then come to realize that the benefit package for these servants of MS Michelle are the same as members of the national security and defense departments and the bill for these assorted lackeys is paid by YOU, John Q. Public: 
Note: Look out for Hillery if she gets elected

Total $2,075,200 in annual salaries - all for someone we did not vote for and apparently have no control over and
5 are Muslim and 13 are African-American

 
There has NEVER been anyone in the White House at any time who has created such an army of staffers whose sole duties are the facilitation of the First Lady's social life. One wonders why she needs so  much help, at taxpayer expense. (I'm wondering why there are no guidelines or restraints for this and other activities concerning our government officials and their kin.)
 
Note: This does not include makeup artist Ingrid Grimes-Miles, 49, and "First Hairstylist" Johnny Wright, 31, both of whom traveled aboard Air Force One on all ALL Trips,Europe included.
Michele usually gets dropped off in another City along with her Mother and 2 Daughters
Note: As of 11/15.2015 the Obama Family has spent over 
1.3 Billion dollars on personal family family trips. They were
personal not political or Government related.

Yes, I know, The Canadian Free Press had to publish this, perhaps because America no longer has a free press and the USA media is too scared that they might be considered racist or suffer at the hands of Obama.

This is just absolutely so maddening. I tried to write a nice comment and I just can't without cussing, so I guess I'll just leave it as is.

Again, just part of the culture of take for nothing earned.

Do they just get the money or do they actually have to show up for work?

Affirmative Action at the highest level of government. Swell.... And can someone please show us how much bang for our buck we get from it?

Is the dog walker/trainer part of that gang?

This is not a truthful report. Whether it is Michele Obama or some other first lady the American people deserve the truth. Laura Bush's support staff was not one person for example but her staff also numbered in the twenties.

The combined annual salaries for the 22 staffers we can specifically identify as working for Michelle Obama come to $1.6 million. For the 18 we could identify as working for Laura Bush in 2008, the total is $1.4 million.

Not a whole lot of difference 11;22. The article said Laura had one staff member.

Kinda typical. They never could handle power or money effectively. Always ends in corruption and or scandal.
