Obama spends too much on his needs

Now that President Obama is acknowledging his concern over our level of debt and is blaming everyone but himself, I am wishing there was a financial genius out there somewhere with access to all government accounts. I would like to know how much it has cost our country, i.e. our taxpayers, having him as president. Beginning with the over-the-top inaugural galas, the number of servants to see to the Obamas’ every need, the frequent and luxurious trips with a cast of hundreds to whom he owes favors, and the stateside trips which greatly resemble campaigning on taxpayers’ dollars, what has been the cost to keep this narcissistic individual happy?

To the personal issues just mentioned, add the cost of his health care and the costly waivers he felt necessary to grant to the privileged many. What has been the cost of setting up and maintaining the multiple offices of Obama’s czars, and what actually are their functions?

Regarding the lengthy Obamacare bill, is it only Realtors who are aware that effective Jan. 1, 2013, there will be a tax of 3.8 percent on the sale of your home? When has a responsible person facing mounting debts ever determined that the way to handle the issue was simply to raise the level of what he owes? This is insanity.
