White House Payroll

It's amazing the waste of our tax dollars in this spreed sheet offering.  No wonder our finances are in such disarray.  I dare say anyone knows just how many people are on the pay roll.  Once you start adding in the staffers for the Senators and Representaives and the Supreme Justices and all the other 'official offices' employment is just another desk in someone's office corner.

I guess the one that really sets me off the most is the people managing the affairs of the First Lady.  Check this out:

Schake, Kristina K.
Special assistant to the president and director of communications for the first lady
$114,000

Winter, Melissa E.
Special assistant to the president and deputy chief of staff and director of operations for the first lady
$120,000

Jarvis, Kristen
Special assistant for scheduling and traveling aide to the first lady
$60,000

Jones, Kristin T.
Special assistant and personal aide to the first lady
$50,000

August, Hannah M.
Press secretary to the first lady
$70,000

Lee, Stephanie A.
Executive assistant to the chief of staff to the first lady
$45,000

Starkey, Frances M.
Director of scheduling and advance for the first lady
$90,000

Ledbetter, Howli J.
Director of correspondence for the first lady
$50,000

Cleland, Jeannette M.
Deputy director of scheduling and events coordinator for the first lady
$66,300

Sanders, Trooper

Tchen, Christina M.

For a GRAND TOTAL of a mere $1,170,800.00 for ONE YEAR
And in case you don't have a calculator handy, that will be $4,683,200 for ONE (4 year) TERM
Of course this doesn't include any expenses that might be included for their 'jobs'.

From looking at the spreadsheet it's no wonder he has all kinds of time to play golf.  Lots of other people are running the White House.
