You can get very comfortable championing the poor. Aye Lizzy?

Helping America's poor, aged and sick is the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' reason for being, but hundreds of its top officials are traveling in style and luxury at taxpayer expense.

Records obtained by the Washington Examiner under the Freedom of Information Act show that HHS executives spent $31 million taking 7,000 first class and business class flights between 2009 and 2013, including 253 trips for which a one-way ticket cost more than $15,000.

Half the records listed the price of a coach ticket for comparison. For that portion alone, the upgrade boosted the cost by almost $14 million, from $4.9 million to $18.5 million.

Federal employees are allowed to fly business or first class if the flight is longer than 14 hours, but only 1,400 of the 7,000 flights met that description.

Well as CNN reported after Lizzy dared to try to tarnish Clintons name last week, Lizzy is a rich bitch. She's made a pretty damn comfortable life for her self championing the little guy and the poor. Think She flies coach?

I ought to get me some of that, I could make a killing bitching about the 1% while making it sound like I'm doing the listener a favor.
