Note what the bill was about:

....individuals would be able to contribute an annual maximum to $15,000 to a 401(k) plan and $5,000 to an IRA, beginning next year. People aged 50 and over could contribute even more.

God forbid the Democrats allow a bill to move forward that would allow people to save more for their retirement before taxes. Instead, they want Social Security to go bankrupt, and me to have no other means to provide for myself.

They love to use Social Security as one of their talking points against republicans. If they lose that, they only have the slavery issue left!

They were justified in walking out in a huff. Don't you know that such a law would be extremely unfair? After all, welfare recipients, hobos, and the rest who populate the 'Rat Plantation don't have 401(k)s or IRAs.

"Including these and other provisions, the bill would cost the government $10.3 billion over the next five years."

And note how the Dims' media outlet, the Post, spins any reduction in taxes into a government "cost."

As if keeping our own money is really taking away something that belongs to the government.
