Should The First Lady Be Paid For Her Work? ....

I wish I could go UN-compensated like this!

Instead, because I own my own business ( ya know...the one we didn't build ) I just get to go without altogether and hide from bill collectors after an average 60-80 hour week......yeah...that's the ticket!

Some might argue that the First Lady does get compensated — not with a salary, but with considerable perks that come with her husband’s job.

She virtually lives without cost (and in a pretty fancy place that she was allowed to redecorate without the budget constraints faced by most Americans).
Her “weekend home” — Camp David — is certainly one that most of us would consider to be worth visiting almost every month.
Michelle Obama has a liberal vacation allowance, with a private jet that she can and does use day and night.
Her private security (Secret Service) keeps the First Lady safe at all times.
The First Lady also has a personal staff numbering 24. (Hillary Clinton had 19, Laura Bush 18)
