Go flat tax with no deductions.

[rarestia]

Who? Those of us who took advantage of our employer 401(k) plans or the legislators who want to tax it?

[massgopguy]

She said “spread the wealth”.

[sodpoodle]

The Federal govt already mandates minimal 401K withdrawals after age 70(?) or impose a penalty.

They have their sticky fingers on money earned, money saved, money invested and inheritances to children.

You didn’t earn that - someone else deserves it - and we’ll decide who and how much.

[DoughtyOne]

I believe Time is incorrect. There’s closer to $17 trillion in retirement accounts.

[Tzimisce]

They’re going to take your 401(k).

It’s not fair that worked your ass off and saved your money and will get something for it, when so many sat on their asses playing WoW and won’t get anything.

[BenLurkin]

Congress?

Or the ‘Rats?

[Ratman83]

They do not have to do anything with them but, they do want to steal as much of them as they can.

Fairness...

[MrB]

Notice they’re referring to IRAs as well as 401k’s.

They’re going after the retirement savings of the diligent in order to pay for Baraqoclaus gifts to their choice recipients.

Now, demographically, who’s going to be “giving” and who’s going to be “receiving”, do ya think.

Google “rhetorical question” before you answer.

[brownsfan]

The takers don’t have a big 401k, so neither should you, so sayeth Jaime Foxx’s lord and savior, Barack Obama.

If they want it, they’ll take it, and there’s not spit you can do about it.

Elections have consequences. But, as I’ve been hammered with the last day or so... Romney would do the same thing. Right?

[Candor7]

Why Congress Might Have to Mess with the 401(k)
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Confiscation of 401K and leave a promissory note?LOL.

Let them do it, and guaranteed there will be a violent revolt in arms all across the country.

welcome to your Twilight Zone...

[ctdonath2]

The Left has gotten good at not attacking their targets head on.
In this case, they won’t tax 401ks directly, but instead will do something which will put a neutral third party at risk, compelled (”comply with regulations XYZ or get penalized out of business”) to perform the “tax” without the actual account owner having any choice in the matter.

[PeterPrinciple]

Even if they take over the retirement plans, just who exactly is going to buy all the stocks and bonds?
