Ever wonder about the Wealth of the Political class?

Type in "name" net worth in search engine. A few examples :

"Among the most popular presidents of America George Bush net-worth is declared to reach 26-million dollars"

Dont know if I buy the description.

Papa Bush 25 million

Jeb seems to be the poor relation@ 2 mill. Any guess what it will be IF he gets in the W.H.?

btw:

"Bill Clinton has earned $106 million in speaking engagement fees."

While Hillary has to live off food stamps according to her description.

Seems to pay off being in Washington.

    Both sides make empty noise about 'getting money out of politics', yet both sides profit wildly, and both remain silent and inactive when NOT on camera. Hypocrites all.

    I wonder why, Obama, is the first president in modern history, that actively pursued personal wealth while in office. The president is suppose to put all personal involvement in business and personal wealth aside while in office. Why has he been giving a pass on this?

    Kerry married it. Issa earned it. Pelosi and Reid stole it from us taxpayers. They both had no money when they took the jobs.
