This economist already has the ear of Congress. BHO hasn’t said anything about her yet, but then again if the Dems gain as many seats as you hope for he won’t be able to stop them (assuming he'd even want to).

- First they remove the tax deductibility.
- Then they entice those that lost some equity, a chance to recoup by relinquishing control of their accounts.
- Then they seize half of their 401K after death.

Do you think it stops there? What’s the big deal? After all it’s simply a little of the old spreading the wealth around.

Some "Rescue" plan.

Here's some more of their great ideas.

That is bad news. Many people only have 401k and IRA's for retirement investment. The smart people will leave this country or be up in arms if this happens.

hey RW, who has been in control of the white house for the past 8 years. Who were responsible for the savings and loan fiasco in the 80's. Remember the Keating 5. Remember Enron and now the bail out, who's in charge. Get your history right. Also, which party has as one of it's parties goals, less regulation of business still?

Everything you just stated has been posted here dozens of times in the past weeks. "It’s all the Republican’s fault, blah blah blah, the Dems are all innocent, blah blah blah."

Did you just wake up this week? Or are you trying to say that ANY of what you just stated justifies the confiscation of my savings? I thought libs here would mock this loony economist as fringe. Judging by the lack of posts I still think that's their take on this, but not you. I don’t think she’s that fringe as far as the left is concerned. Maybe that explains their silence. They’re embarrassed to admit she’s spot on concerning the Dem’s intentions.

Hey RW, who's going to confiscate your savings? If your bank has FDIC insurance, it's now insured to $250,000. I don't to post more because your message says it all about u.

You just picked mine because you hated my handle? Because you obviously didn’t read what I posted. Or maybe you actually believe that your new improved FDIC insurance is going to protect you from the pension plan changes outlined in the article.

Oh wait you didn’t need to read it. You understood everything necessary from my handle, LOL.

Ahhh. The soft bigotry of handle prejudice.

I knew they were a sham from day one.

Ya' want fiscal independence and freedom? It's called a "floor safe" in your home, and it contains BOTH your saved monies as well as firearms and ammo for when the new millennium Nazis start trying to tell ya' what-da-fuck too do.

I want to see dead, beaten, burnt corpses. I want to taste their veins in my teeth. I want to gaze upon my front yard and see piles of bleeding market speculators and corporate lackeys being ravaged by vermin and bugs as the sun accelerates the corruption of their unholy carrion.
