US politicians are already trying to figure out how to confiscated your 401(k) dollars...they just can’t figure out how to do it legally because it is still in your name.
At some point, they’re going to come up with some scheme or other by claiming some of that money is owed to taxes...and then there will be a never ending drain on those accounts until they’re depleted, just like every socialist program they have implemented and put in ‘trust’ funds.
They will just start upping taxes on the 401k fund companies who willl pass that along to you. They will even conveniently take it out of your fund for you along with their ‘maintenance’ fee.
