[Freedom of Speech Wins]

I have recently looked at a BANK brochure issued to notify of a change in fee schedules, with such a fee listed and stated as a new fee.

Our government thinks it's their money -- and they get to enforce their opinion with incarceration and at the end of a gun barrel.

Just look at all these tax-deferred savings plans (401k's e.g.). I can almost understand collecting taxes when funds are withdrawn early, but what's the penalty for ?? A PENALTY for using my own money ??

Of course, if you have a good enough reason (in the judgment of the government) for using your own money, our benevolent government can waive the penalty.

And, don't forget, the government establishes the timeframe you can use YOUR money without penalty by establishing the earliest and latest ages you can take distribution.

Again, this is insane.
