Tonight, President Barack Obama gave his annual State of the Union Address to the nation, where he laid out his agenda for the country moving forward, including a new minimum wage and future military plans. But for the Twitter universe, the most important part of the night was the announcement of MyRA, the president’s new plan for a retirement account aimed at helping the middle class.
Obviously folks across social media immediately hijacked the MyRA name and turned it into a hashtag for people to recount sordid tales about their college residential assistants. This was easily more interesting than anything the president said all night, so to catch you up, here is a list of The 15 Best MyRA Tweets Posted During The State of The Union Address:
