Congress attempted to restrict the expense accounts of previous and retired presidents to $200,000 per year. Carter costs the taxpayer $430,000 per year PLUS his annual retirement income. Think that is outrageous. GW Bush spends 1.1 million dollars per year. Understand that retirement salaries are fixed by law. Office expense accounts are open, the sky is the limit.
Again, the Republican congress attempted to fix this problem but an Obama veto ended the effort. Perfect! And I mean to say, "Perfect cover for the Republican congress." Understand that the GOP congress passed a bill that looks good to the voters, knowing full well that Obama would veto the legislation. What a scam.
Like Trump keeps saying, "The system is rigged."
