Guaranteed.
Ah, so all the dough gets “locked in a LOCK BOX”...?
Suuuuuure....!!
> The legislature will steal the money, spend it on buying votes from Low Information Voters, and leave the savers flat.
Guaranteed.
You can bet your bottom dollar they will. Our government has turned into nothing more than thiefs using the power of lthe pen to rob us blind. They steal more than any bank robber could steal in a lifetime in one day.
People should have a choice to enroll in that retirement program, but i wish i had been enrolled in a similar one. It’s too late for me to accumulate much savings but i give it another try this year.
What a bunch of creeps.
A little tin box
A little tin box
That a little tin key unlocks.....
They've already pulled off the greatest robbery in all time, which was TARP. It will never be equalled in my lifetime, it was so bulgingly vast. Incredible. I'd like to have just the interest on the interest (Assuming >0% rates!) on that pile of loot, plunder, dosh, booty.....
Did the arithmetic on my own proposition, and 2% of the 2% on the $2 trillion of TARP comes to $800 million. Not bad. I could buy Lamborghini in every color of the rainbow with just the first instalment.
Dems trying to build up another trust fund to rob. Lovely.
That money certainly won’t be there when those individuals retire!
And Quinn and cronies will be delighted to “invest” it in their own pal’s banks and companies ...
It’s a voluntary program...........
Yeah, no thanks. I save what I want to save in the mechanisms I want to use.
I think any legislation that is “preemptive yes” that takes tings away from people - money, organs, life - ought to be illegal, automatically regarded null and void, and the lawmakers kicked out for violating their oaths and the constitution.
I agree. This is very wrong.

Hell I had quite a bit put back until OBAMA hit...now almost nothing...
And then this pool of captive savings from the serfs can be used to pay off government debt.
The USA is turning into Argentina.
How can be voluntary if you have to opt out- I could see if you had to opt in. I would bet this will cost taxpayers alot of money when it is challenged in court
you made a mistake. you meant to title this semi-news in the satire section.
If you mean you get to opt out after being forced into it, then it is “voluntary.” Voluntary in my book would not require the action of opting out but oping in.
>> And then this pool of captive savings from the serfs can be used to pay off government debt.
Ha! If only.
They’ll spend it on NEW “programs”. Hide and watch.
