I wonder if the folks in EUrope knew they had voted into being an all-consuming gubamint that would eventually devour them so it could survive.

[wny]

It’s time to hang politicians from lamp posts and burn their buildings to the ground.

[Pearls Before Swine]

All your money are belong to us.

So true.

However, this is only a question of method, not result. The "investment" projects will obviously be confiscatory redistribution to keep the lid from blowing off.

We're not that different here in result, but we go about it in a different (so far) and less explicit way. When the US government's debt burden becomes too high, it will most likely inflate and tax it away, which is a different way of confiscating accumulated savings than a direct debit. The spending driving the debt will be called social investment here, too. Saaaame thing, really.

Get ready for the biggest bank run in history.

The pensioned, jackbooted enforcers will be more than happy to assist in the theft.

“Europe Considers Wholesale Savings Confiscation, Enforced Redistribution”

Holy cow! The EU elites want to live through a second French revolution, complete with beheadings, buckets of blood and brains seeping out their various Nazi and commie orifices.

Okay. I don’t have a problem with that.

Confiscate bank & pension accounts, make cash illegal, confiscate PMs. That ought to do it.
Now if you’re a good boy or girl, you might get your state allowance.
Too bad the euros don’t have a 2A.

The Obama Regime and the accompanying Politburo (congress) are feverishly taking notes.

 

 

[Army Air Corps]

Ping.

[GeronL]

Time for a bank run?

[Mike Darancette]

Surely they will give you some type of receipt or IOU. /sarc

[bgill]

The almight POTUS (pen of the US) is busy taking notes.

[1066AD]

There are those close to this admin. that believe 401(k), IRA etc are examples of wealth and privilege that should not be allowed.

Remember also the mutterings in Hillarycare days and since 2009 that retirement accounts should be (partly) used to fund health reform.

IRAs and the like represent assets = independence, something these types of gov’t detest.
