Michelle Obama's budget!

MICHELLE OBAMA’S WAY OF CREATING JOBS

Once upon a time, the First Lady’s social calendar was funded from the President’s own pocket. That all changed with Mamie Eisenhower. Since then, presidential wives have been allowed to hire staff at taxpayer expense. Jackie Kennedy had an assistant, Hillary Clinton had three, Laura Bush had one.
