Gee AARP is really gonna be pissed. Maybe theyll reconsider their far left support now.
It is not BS. Its an old story, in fact.
Yes, she does want to do that. It is pure class warfare pitting Latinos, Blacks and poor Whites against anyone who has been productive and saved.
Didn’t the Romans do this just before their form of government collapsed?
Communist.
“It is not BS. Its an old story, in fact.”
Old story - yes...doesn’t mean it is true.
Where’s the source?
I wouldn’t put anything past her. Just need a source.
I'm not too worried about it. If the pols go after 401k's directly, DC won't have enough rope, torches, or pitchforks to go around.
Now - what I really see happening....eventually....is DC doing away with 401k's. Or doing away with the tax breaks associated with them (virtually the same thing). Particularly if its done on a "voluntary" basis...I could see it happening, sooner or later.
DONT WASTE OUR TIME WITH THIS CRAP...
So.....at some point will you come back...and tell everyone you are an idiot?
An important aside: Because of the depression, government tax revenues which in 2008 were about $3T may be as little as $2T in 2009, and less after that.
The “+$250k wealthy” that the Democrats so abhor, are already making every effort to protect what is left of their wealth from the Democrats.
They will be making any number of adjustments to limit their tax exposure. Obama’s recent effort to attack the salaries and bonuses of high end businesses, have put these efforts into overdrive.
So if they cannot raise taxes on income, and get more money, or raise taxes on capital gains, and get more money, or any of the other usual tax suspects, what is left for them to do?
Simple. “WEALTH TAXES.”
That is not taxing new money, but money you already have.
If you have $10,000 in the bank, they will demand $2,000 of it. The same applies to other monies that you have already paid tax on once.
Think of it as a “windfall wealth tax.” Or “You have money and we want it, so we are going to take it.”
Does anyone seriously think they wouldn’t do this?
“I believe Clinton proposed a 15% one-time tax on all 401k. So the precedent is there.”
Before the 1994 elections and the dhimms had control of the house, senate and presidency, there was a proposal made.
Pelosi saying this verbatim may not be recorded, but it is her mindset.
Boortz brings it up from time to time.
Congress is just looking for their “crisis” to push for such an illegal act.
Gore even wanted an imputed income tax based on possible rent revenue on the house in which you lived.
