That's a combination designed to strike fear into the hearts of anyone with two or more brain cells in a row.

part of a series of moves the White House says is aimed at boosting the middle class.

How many of you have found this year getting less back in taxes than you did last year?

Our is about $4,000 less.

putting customers first leads to profit
those who don’t put customers first won’t lead to profit. So what Obama is really doing is forcing changes to retirement account that will screw customers

When I was in college, the first time around, I was studying gerontology and every time we went to a conference as students the old AARP people would show up and cause some type of commotion that ruined perfectly good talks. Every dang time. It makes sense that Obama would be chirping to his choir.

Not me. I learned a long time ago that it’s not in my financial interest to give the federal government a 1-year interest-free loan using my money.

First the AARP helps destroy the health care of non-retired (non-medicare) people and now they want to destroy the savings of non SSIP people.

Do AARP members know that they are paying dues so that the organization can wage war on the rest of us?

My retirement account is PM’s (in my possession), real estate and hard assets. Sorry, Obama and GOPe, they are out of your reach (so far).

Pay Attention, this is designed to fail and cause BIG losses to the middle class, so the Government can Take Over your Retirement accounts.
