Tough Economy? Maybe Not

The tough economy effects the white house. Or wait a second, the tough economy effects those out of the white house!!!!! Obama is cracking down on all the huge companies that are making record breaking income yet his administration is making records themselves. There are 487 employees on the White House personnel list. Of those, 455 are employed directly by the White House, while an additional 32 are so-called "detailees" on loan from other federal agencies. And these lucky 32 will end up making more money like the Public Health Policy Director David Marcozzi, who earns $192,934

Among the actual employees, 122 staffers earn more than $100,000 annually, compared to 125 employees in the final year of the Bush administration. Twenty-two Obama White House staffers make the top possible salary of $172,200, compared to 18 employees who made that amount in the Bush White House. With these types of numbers it makes you think that our country isn't in a recession and that all is well.

Granite these are the minds that are running our country and deserve to get rewarded for it. Yet Obama a man who slapped the wrist of those who set records for income of money, who is he to talk. Maybe if the administration focused on trying to make our country money and not lining their own pockets a few more of us can enjoy the rich life like the other 122 white house employees.
