$540 for a pair of sneakers. Wow that is great that Michelle Obama can go and spend that kind of money. And they are not just any sneakers, they are French design house lanvin. Of course her stressful and demanding day requires that she wears only comfortable shoes. Walking the dog is such a great hassle if it were not for great shoes. Hey lady have you not heard of Shoe Carnival or Wal-Mart or even Target and K-Mart, I yeah that would be too low class for her tastes.
I wonder whose wealth they had to spread around for that? We have been told by this administration that wealth is so gauche (low class) and did not they learn to forgo “middleclassness.” I seem to remember a certain Church Of Christ Pastor, teaching against just this such extravagances.
The $540 dollars could have went to help someone who was unemployed or help someone homeless. Or how about this one $540 sneakers never helped to feed a hungry child ( thank you Bill Clinton for that.)
You know for a household who seems to tell the rest of us to tighten our belts, sure does seem to loosen theirs. Living the high life is something that even the best of socialists cannot avoid. The one truth in life is this; there will always be the poor, so do not pontificate about being frugal when you buy $540 dollar shoes.
