Where did the Pizza Go? Wisconsin Group Comes up with creative way to highlight Pentagon spending?

2005 Budget Spending

Half our federal income taxes go to the Pentagon. That’s a big piece of the pie.

Recently a Peace Action group in Wisconsin came up with a creative way to make that point. They staged pizza deliveries to media outlets. On the outside of the box was a Military Spending Pie Chart and a note saying “Pizza Brought to you by Peace Action” but inside the box was only half a pizza and a note saying that “the military got the other half of the pie.”

How would you make the point of how much of our money the Pentagon gobbles up? Post your ideas in the comments section below.

    Here’s an idea I had for street theater. Instead of Pac Man, it’s Pent Man, a giant Pentagon pie-chart that eats up school spending, heathcare and the environment.
