The Washington Post - thank god for the WaPo and the Times - ran an article this morning on the Mnuchins, Steve and his wife Louise Linton. For those not following the continued foibles and attempted larceny by various Trump administration stooges, Steve-o is the Secretary of the Treasury, worth 300 million thanks to his hedge fund and Hollywood producer background. His wife, Louise, a trophy-blonde and roughly 30 years his junior, makes Marie Antoinette look nuanced with her tone-deaf, ultra-elitist faux pas. She mocked the less fortunate than her (which would be around 99.9% of the population) on social media, topping it off by commenting sarcastically on criticism of her using government funds for personal use, "Adorable! Do you think the U.S. govt paid for our honeymoon or personal travel?! Lololol.” Turns out she wasn't joking - according to the Post, the couple did request use of a private US government jet for a honeymoon trip to Scotland, France and Italy at $25,000 an hour.
That's entitlement for you, and the Trump regime to a T. The Mooch, Mnuchin, gold plated toilets, weekend golf, grab-'em by the you-know-what: has there ever been a more reprehensible collection of con-men, grifters, sycophants and capitalist pigs in charge of a country? This collection of thieves makes the court of Louis XIV look like a worker's collective (I know Marie Antoinette was Louis XVI's wife, but by that time the Bourbon court was actually more sympathetic to the commoner that was the Sun King and his entourage). Here's her original Instagram post flouting her lifestyle of the rich and famous, payed for by the citizens of the US:

Turns out we've been paying for all of this, while her husband hides millions in off-shore accounts and is in charge of the administration's efforts to re-write the tax code. You better believe that all corporate America, and the uber-wealthy, will get off like thieves under his plans. No way - we need to make sure that the wealthy pay more than they have been, with fewer loopholes and keeping the estate tax in place.
