In a move to try and refill the money taken from Social Security over the last several decades and prevent the inevitable bankruptcy of the retirement plan, the Unites States of America has announced they are selling the naming rights of our monuments.
YUM! foods spokesperson Dean Warner stood side by side with the President of the Unites States as the two closed a deal to rename "The Liberty Bell" to "The Taco Bell Liberty Bell."
"This is a huge opportunity for us to spread our brand name to people in America who may not have heard of Taco Bell."
"This is a wonderful opportunity for businesses to advertise as we follow the same business plan of many arenas and stadiums that sold their naming rights to raise revenue," said the President.
He added with a wink of an eye, "The next ceremony is going to be announced this evening, so I don't want to steal the thunder, but I think all Americans will be excited to see who bought the naming rights to the Jefferson McMorial."
White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs answered questions after the ceremony, in particular, some of the corporations the White House is courting.
"We would love to be able to sell the naming rights to Mammoth Cave to Vagisil. It seems like a perfect fit to us. And the Grand Canyon, the biggest crack in the earth, we are hoping to talk Preparation H regarding naming rights."
Plymouth Rock could be renamed Chevrolet Rock, and Jack Daniels could sponsor Yellowstone.
