Social Security More Equal Pigs

If bankers, auto executives, or insurance executives decide to have a retreat for their employees, say in Las Vegas, or at Hilton Head, or what have you, nowadays, they are immediately chastised and excoriated, sometimes by the Obama himself, but if the Social Security Administration decides to hold a retreat for seven hundred of their managers and the like, hey, it’s okay.

Last week the Social Security Administration flew approximately 700 of its managers from across the U.S. and Guam to Phoenix, Arizona’s posh Arizona Biltmore Hotel and Resort, for “organizational training.” The event, which included musical entertainment and dancing, skits, catered food, cocktails, and a “casino night” featuring “door prizes,” cost us lowly taxpayers approximately $750,000.
