It will just be a "millionaires tax" on withdrawals from an 401(k) that has more than say $250,000 in it. it will start small (maybe 3 or 4%) and then grow little by little to match the falloff in benefits for public union employees.

The same way they sold the income tax. "Only the rich will pay" mm-hmm.

Exactly. Most people have no idea what income tax was like when it first started out. Do yourself a favor and fill out the 1913 1040 form. Even with our horribly inflated currency, I'd rather have that form and tables than the modern one.
