Michelle Obama's $500,000 shopping trip

The First Lady's whirlwind tour of Spain in 2010 better have been a once in a lifetime trip, because her getaway cost taxpayers nearly half a million dollars.

The highly controversial and lavish trip drew ire at the time, but the White House assured the public that the Obamas picked up the tab on their own.

But new information from Judicial Watch, a public interest group that investigates government corruption, detailed the extensive security costs to the United States Air Force and Secret Service.

The Obamas' highly publicized and polarizing vacations may cost the First Family even more, as voters appear to be disheartened by their extravagance.

Yet, in the meantime, millions of hardworking taxpaying CITIZENS, are told that we are selfish if we expect decent wages, pensions, healthcare and all other benefits from the companies that we work for for 40-60+ hours a week! And at the same time, the owners of these companies, lavish themselves with fancy vacations, mansions, expensive cars, and costly educational expenses for their children, on OUR backs. EVERYONE is tired of it, can't these people see that? These businesses would not exist if it were not for the employees that work for them like freaking slaves.
