Do you think the Secret Service is free?
Do you think their protection does not come at a cost to others?
YES I KNOW the secret service cost. BUT at some of the #s being tossed around in those news groups, you would be expecting there to be 1000 security on each day, each making 20k a DAY IN pay.. Sorry, but that is pure bupkis..
The walkways around trump tower have to be guarded 24/7, so less foot traffic, so the businesses, down to the hot dog cart are being destroyed by lack of access. The strict no fly zone around the POTUS, real good for locals who have business that operate on free access to the sky, for skywriting, or joyrides, or anything, and they operate in a tourist based location in Florida.
That is not a cost though. That is an economic impact. Just like when Obama went to certain golf courses/martha's vineyard, and other people got bumpped out even though they had paid thousands for the trip.

Don't forget, Trump OWNs his hotels -AND- the golf courses that go with them. So, he doesn't have to pay any special fees just to play golf or stay overnight in his own hotels. Plus, the SS probably get to stay at the hotel with a group discount, so that would put more ka-ching into taxpayers pockets than Uncle Sam's services.
I was reading earlier that Ben Carson did an audit on the Obama Admin's HUD program and found over $500 BILLION in miscalculated errors.. Really????! Except most errors are usually dismissed or waived if only a few dollars off, NOT a few hundred BILLION off.., especially if it's the little guy taxpayer making a miscalculation..!

What We Found
"The total amounts of errors corrected in HUD’s notes and consolidated financial statements were $516.4 billion and $3.4 billion, respectively. . ."

That is something i have kept on trying to point out to people, but they seem to not care..

Not surprising to me.. Government over-reach, waste and fraud misrepresented..

It doesn't matter because of the cost, it matters because it is Trump. I didn't hear all that much pee'n n moanin' when the prior sorry excuse for president & his wife had separate vacations and all that crap.

He says while pissing and moaning about the previous president.
