The Obama White House pays $37.8 million to it’s staff of 456.
Not only is there a Chief Calligrapher, Patricia A. Blair, who costs taxpayers $97,692 pear, but there is actually a secondary Calligrapher who makes $86,812 every year. How often does a White House Calligrapher get called upon to write fancy on things? Does Obama really need to pay over-the-top salaries to multiple Calligraphers, when they could just contract with someone on a per-job basis?
Oh yea, this is exactly how Obama has propped up the unemployment rate – by hiring as many overpaid and unaccountable government employees as possible.
U.S. taxpayers paid $37.8 million in salaries for President Obama’s 456 White House employees, according to a newly released administration report.
With a median individual salary of $70,700 per year, White House workers make well above the median household income of just $51,017.
Salaries ranged from $172,200 to $42,000. President Obama’s 22 senior administration officials, such as Valerie Jarrett and John Podesta, all bagged the top end of the salary scale. Others, like Chief Calligrapher Patricia A. Blair, cost taxpayers $97,692. Calligrapher Debra S. Brown receives a $86,812 salary.
Obama, who was not included in the list, earns $400,000. a year.
The White House said it was releasing how much money U.S. taxpayers pay for Obama’s staff in order to remain “consistent with President Obama’s commitment to transparency.”
“Obama’s commitment to transparency” What a complete and total joke! The Obama administration is the most secretive, opaque and corrupt group of criminals ever, in the history of our nation.
