In the two weeks following Obama's election, my retirement 401k dropped from around $980k to $413k. I lost another $250k in company stock that week. Very little recovery and that is the core resource to sustain me in retirement. A year later, I had to deal with a functional layoff that burned 520 hours of accrued vacation down to 32 hours. Obama has been a total disaster for my financial planning.

The bastards are plotting a means of stealing the rest with some crap program that will be labeled ObamaSave.

I blamed Obamacare for my company kicking me to the curb after 33 years of service. They have not stopped the layoffs. And, now they are renting out warehouse space and contracting out more of their jobs.

look at me....all I figured was a simple 5% interest on mere savings and we'd have done fairly well....

can't even get much over 1/2% now....
