Students at Eastern Oregon got to "TAKE A SLICE" of pizza the other day in honor of the fact that our government takes much more than a slice from our paychecks!!  The event was a great success and brought up the opportunity to talk about Social Security with over 200 students.  After all, the point was to hone in on the fact that such a large portion of our paychecks are taken out for Social Security. 

And to make things even worse - we KNOW we will not get the benefits we deserve by the time we retire.  So it's a crappy situation all around.  Luckily, we made everyone's day a little brighter by providing pizza and the students did their part by signing the petition to Congress saying they need to address the problems facing Social Security and give us Personal Retirement Accounts.  BOOYAH!!
