This action, if implemented, would in essence be a declaration of war by the takers against the makers. Working people may not like the idea of theft of their lifetime retirement savings. This could be the tipping point that starts the next revolution.
Well the vast majority of people in this country have abandoned the concept of private property rights so when it happens they will deserve it. They just thought the government would leave theirs alone while taking from the rich.
I thought then that he was crazy, because to take other people's money would be theft.
Right?
I’m well aquainted with incrementalism.
My point is that some increments are a bridge too far and will be met with unexpected reaction.
Funds will be deposited into a pooled GRA.
Wonder what bills will be passed in the summer months when onbody is looking at 3:00am.
“Not to change the subject, “
Then you go on to change the subject. You are a one trick pony that is incapable of doing anything other than simply parroting the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over. Yet, you fail to EVER propose a solution and try to hijack other important subjects to your nebulious claim.
“•Government will automatically deduct 5%-6% out of your earnings. Those funds will be deposited into a pooled GRA”
I would call BS on this and would say that it is impossible, that the people would never allow it, then I remember last July when John Roberts decided that forcing me to purchase a product from a private company was now constitutional and I remember that everything is now on the table and the people still don’t care.
Jesus had it right: "Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's." That includes tax-deferred accounts, government bonds, public pensions, and even the Federal Reserve Notes in one's wallet. One's assets need to be elsewhere, if one wishes to shelter them from the coming storm.
bttt
Whah.
I proposed solutions about 5 times already.
I have not been too specific, because that puts the solution ahead of the problem.
That is to say, trying to propose a solution before we even agree what the problem is.
But I’ve proposed solutions.
I however think you’re not really interested in solutions. Just interested in selling stuff made elsewhere, in America.
No?
“I proposed solutions about 5 times already.”
No you haven’t.
“I have not been too specific,”
Here you admit that you haven’t. You make the same blanket statements and that is all. In fact, you even made that general statement on this thread, when in fact if this thread’s topic comes to fruition it will further create a jobs problem in this country. If capital is confiscated, then business expansion will be severly hampered.
So, rather than say something along the lines of “we’ve already outsourced too many jobs and this policy would make it even worse.” You paste your tired generalities AGAIN.
I’ve walked you into a solution previously and yet you still fail to utilize your intellect to add value to FR.
Seems like everyone’s focused on the military cuts, but this morning’s local Fox affiliate brought up the fact that Obama’s new budget includes a plan to go after retirement savings, so I think it appropriate to remind everyone of this piece from last year.
