The obvious flaw in the claims (Well, ONE of the obvious flaws...):

At UNDER $50,000/year, HOW did they pay for the $20,000/year for two kids in private school????

Wonder if the IRS will be wondering that too?

Read it again; the kids are on scholarship.

But that is not, and never was, the point.

The original post never accused them of any financial shenanigans. The question is why do they feel deserving of federal aid when they have such resources on their own?

The children attend the school on scholarship.

However, they do not own an expensive home on scholarship, they do not own two businesses on scholarship, they do not own commercial properties on scholarship.

Moreover, I find it hard to believe that someone in medical publishing in Baltimore makes a whole lot less than $40,000 per year.

It looks to me like the income they declare for tax purposes is basically her income, and whatever cash they pull out of the business is either unreported or - more likely given the Frosts' social pedigree - carefully sheltered through an LLC structure.
