Obama's Retirement Benefits

[Sistine Chapel]

nothing out of the ordinary just glad to see my guy getting his on top of all the speaking fees that are sure to come. Can you say Global C̶l̶i̶n̶t̶o̶n̶ Obama Foundation

Pension

$205,700 per year. The pension starts the minute the president officially leaves office at noon on Inauguration Day.

Transition Expenses

For the first 7 months, beginning one month before the January 20 inauguration, former presidents get transition funding the help them transition back into private life. Granted under the Presidential Transition Act, the funds can be used for office space, staff compensation, communications services, and printing and postage associated with the transition. The amount provided is determined by Congress.
Staff and Office Allowances

Six months after a president leaves office, he or she gets funds for an office staff. During the first 30 months after the leaving office, the former president gets a maximum of $150,000 per year for this purpose. Thereafter, the Former Presidents Act stipulates that the aggregate rates of staff compensation for a former President cannot exceed $96,000 annually. Any additional staff costs must be paid for personally by the former president.

Former presidents are compensated for office space and office supplies at any location in the United States. Funds for former presidents' office space and equipment are authorized annually by Congress as part of the budget for the General Services Administration (GSA).
Travel Expenses

Under a law enacted in 1968, the GSA makes funds available to former presidents and no more than two of his or her staff members for travel and related expenses. To be compensated, the travel must be related to the former president's status as an official representative of the United States government. In other words, travel for pleasure is not compensated. The GSA determines all appropriate costs for travel.
Secret Service Protection

With the enactment of the Former Presidents Protection Act of 2012 (H.R. 6620), on Jan. 10, 2013, former presidents and their spouses receive Secret Service protection for their lifetimes. Under the Act, protection for the spouses of former presidents terminates in the event of remarriage. Children of former presidents receive protection until they reach age 16.


Medical Expenses

Former Presidents and their spouses, widows, and minor children are entitled to treatment in military hospitals. Former presidents and their dependents also have the option of enrolling in private health insurance plans at their own expense.
State Funerals

Former presidents are traditionally granted state funerals with military honors. Details of the funeral are based on the wishes of the former president's family.

the Mufo-In-Chief commuted it's sentence to time served on a 35 year rap. next it will get gov assistance to have it's nuts cut off and it's dick split in two like a hotdog and shoved up it's taint to make a fake pussy. YUCK!

supposedly, it did this because the Army wouldn't let it dress like a sissy. for all the bullshit done about this, maybe the Army shoulda let it dress like a female. who cares anyway.

Just like all former Presidents, he should get what is coming to him.
If he deserves to be in prison as the result of committing a crime, that is where he should be.
Let me know when the investigation is started, charges filed, and what the deal is in case he cops a plea.

The power of the pardon is there for him to use as HE sees fit. We all know what he is and is not. So maybe some of you would want to take away the presidential liberties?

[dilbert firestorm]

I'm not in favor of presidential retirement benefits. time to get rid of it.

same goes for congressional benefits.

we have too many career politicians who think they are entitled to something due to length of service.

i agree. or maybe it gets reduced by income like a citizen's social security benefit is.

Maybe Obama will play in the street and be hit by a city bus and save us a whole bunch of hard-printed cash.

The President doesn't need a pension anymore. He can knock down $100 grand for speaking engagements and write a book for 4 million.

[waverunner234]

He'll just write a book and get $12M in advance like Bill Clinton did.
Only Bill Clinton was a better president.

[waverunner234]

Shit I have to change my address, I now live in the United States of Nevada, 3 miles away from 10 casino's where I spend a lot of time.
And with my car less than an hour away from Las Vegas.
(but that's only when I do 126 miles per hour)

[IIFFOFRDB]

If y'all put anyone on ignore, this retard above me is the one! I've had him on ignore for 4 years waiting for his come back. If you read his posts you will automatically become less intelligent...
