The cost of traveling - Joe Biden
Three days in Singapore. A $538K hotel bill.
From
the Weekly Standard:
Vice President Biden's $583K Shangri-la Hotel Bill in Singapore
Vice President Joe Biden's $585,000 hotel bill for a Paris visit early in 2013 focused a lot of attention on the issue of the high cost of VIP travel. Even as Biden is currently on a swing through the Far East, the State Department has posted a $583,000 contract with the Shangri-la Hotel in Singapore for the vice president's three-day/two-night stay this past July, his most recent Far East visit.
I can not imagine what it would be to blow a half-million dollars for a few nights of lodging. A perfect example of how out of touch these people are from reality.
