There’s Always a Price to Pay (See What I Did There?)
Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price has champagne taste on a taxpayer’s budget.
You will remember Price as the guy who made stock trades in health-care companies while serving on a House panel overseeing Obamacare and other health issues.
He has also positioned himself as a champion of fiscal efficiency, backing major spending reductions to agencies he oversees and legislation that would cull hundreds of billions of dollars from health entitlement programs.
Price spent $60,000 of your money on private jets in a two day period. All other cabinet secretaries travel commercial.
The only explanation Price has? “I’m a very busy man.” Well hell, child, so am I, but I don’t call a limo to drive me to the damn grocery store and then send you the bill.
Thanks to everybody for the heads up.
