In one of the most egotistical moves yet, Speaker of the House Pelosi is asking for a private plane for her trips back and forth to California. Pelosi however hasn't just asked for a small plane. She has asked for a plane that has a crew of 16, seats 42 passengers in a large compartment, a sleeping area with king size bed, state of the art communications and entertainment features. After all her demands, if granted this plane will cost the tax payers $300,000 round trip every trip.Now I wonder is this why the people elected new blood into Congress. So that they may have a self serving government that waste their tax dollars.
Let's do some math....... If Pelosi only returns home once a week that's 52 trips a year, she's in office for 2 years at $300,000 a trip.
$300,000 x 52 x2 = $31,200,000
How many armored vest could that buy for our troops? How many children could that provided an education for? How many border patrol agents would that employ?
