and maybe that would be the point....getting all that tax revenue in from the penalties...but I would do it if I had too...

There is a lot less to confiscate.

[cherry]

its my money...money that I earned, no one else....its a struggle for middle income people to fully contribute to their 401's and to their roths, it makes you sacrifice and refrain from immediate gratification items, but we do it so we can have something when we retire....

not only that, it is to supplement SS benefits and its something we want to be able to leave the kids when we're gone......

if they take it over, they will make you spend every single penny before SS kicks in.....there will be no legacy for the kids or the grandkids....

[grb]

This better not be true.

On November 14, I turned 59 1/2. I took out enough to
pay off my debts. I hope that the rest is there when I
retire. If not, we have plan B and depending on the state< of the economy, plan C.

That’s good, in fact, probably very good.

Remember the “first Registration, then Confiscation” argument against Gun Control way back in the 60’s? I do.

Now many Americans have no problem with “Common Sense” Gun Control, whatever the hell that is. Registration or the outright banning of so called Assault Weapons is entirely possible today, thanks to a Sycophant Liberal Media pushing the Gun Control Agenda of the Left.

Given enough time and repeated lies and misinformation, the Sheeple will trade their accounts for a false sense of economic security. It will be sold to the masses as a guaranteed Annuity.

Of course when you die, just as in the current Social Security System, they'll keep your money.

By the time I stop working, over $200,000 will have been paid to the Government from my years of labor into SS and Medicare. The odds of me collecting that money before I die will be slim, due to a form of Leukemia I contracted at age 52. Not to mention the Millions of Dollars that money would have grown to over 45 years of investment.

Republicans think people are smart. Democrats know people are stupid. It's as simple as that.
