Interesting...I hear a constant theme of, “Wait till people look at their 401ks”....let me take it further. What happens to those older folks who cannot retire and/or cannot afford their later years anymore. What becomes of them?

They become wards of the new utiopian socialist government.

In that case, the last words retirees are likely to hear are, “Now, breathe deeply, Mr. Turtle. This won’t hurt ...”

Obama will try to buy the votes of the bankrupted seniors, some how.

Killed off by the new Socialized Medicine.

Look at the UK model; People over 65 who need dialysis are out of luck. People who have cancer recurrance are out of luck.

Of course, we are more humane. We won't put lime on the floors of the boxcars.

Life is harder for everyone now. Maybe they should have thought a bit harder before pushing all those buttons for RATS in the voting booth over their entire lifetime. Well, they are getting what they asked for.

Life is cruel, the ones who voted for this facsist do not get any sympathy from me. I save mine for those who opposed him and are now being turned into paupers - like I am.

I now cannot retire, and have no idea when I ever can now. Add to that, he is planning on jacking up my taxes and cost of living through “cap and trade, carbon taxes and the like”, making it less possible for me to save, and dramatically increase the probability my wife and I will be involuntarially severed from employment before we are ready.

What becomes of any of us as this facsist runs American into the ground for four years?

How about when Mom and Dad are eating cold oatmeal and they have to sell the house into this market and move in with the kids or try to go back to work?

Not pretty at all.

Happy, happy, happy obamabots!
