Seriously. Posting anything written by this socialist b!tch should be considered a crime. Go Google here and see what she proposed as a mucky muck in the Clinton Administration.
She was one of the early “takers”. Take/assess your 401Ks 20% to redistribute. Tax the hell out of you because you save.
Frankly, I’m astonished anyone takes here for an “economist” any more.
Just another Clinton GHOUL hiding out in Obama’s America of struggle trying to sell the same old tired socialist sh!t.
People are free to do whatever they want and handle their finances however they choose.
What really, really chaps my *ss is that then the government turns around, puts a gun to MY head, sticks its big mitt into MY pocket, and robs ME to pay for THEIR refusal to plan ahead.
Uh....because they’re tapped out? That plus they can’t get any interest on their savings these days anyway.
I long ago came to the conclusion that the Government does not want us to save. It wants us to spend, spend, spend. Why?
1. To stimulate the Economy
2. So we will be totally dependent on Government programs in our dottage
here = her.....
And there always will be ants that live and grasshoppers that starve to death.
Thanks for posting. Excellent read.
They have already been laying the groundwork for years to do just that.
You will be issued worthless bonds instead, and your Social Security, taxes, Medicare, and access to any other healthcare will be tied to your "cooperation."
You misspelled a word. It should say “her.”
You could be right. My point was that recounting anything this GHOUL has to say is a form of useless masochism. Frankly, it is an insult to even see her name here.
Yes. I was pissed. See post 5
Oh, absolutely. That’s the way it is with Marxists. What’s yours is mine.
The Bible describes most of the Patriarchs working until they died.
Not sure where this idea that people are entitled to a period of leasure on this earth came from, but it absolutely wasn’t the God of the bible.
Principles for stewardship yes.
And there are the commands to be fruitful and multiply, to love one another, and for parents not to vex their children. Do all three of those and your kids will probably look after you if you become incapacitated.
But a life of ease? That’s not promised or deserved.
it also sounds unfulfilling.

Nothing this bitch writes is anything but socialist, tax the hell our of you claptrap.
She wants to nationalize retirement savings. Her idea is to pay you 2 to 3% on your money... that is no retirement at all. It is slow death by a thousand cuts.
Yeah, like that worked out well with social security.
That said, a positive 2 t 3% looks good by comparison to now.
. . .and then there are us ants who get placed in untenable positions: extended illness, unexpected layoffs, emergencies. . .
OH, NOT the TSPs. That’s THEIR PEOPLE’S MONEY. But OURS ? There for the taking. . .
Honestly...if I work much beyond 70, I WILL die. Hoping to retire sooner rather than later...and then work at what I WANT to work at! Whatever that may be.
Oh, perfect. The gov't has done such a great job managing SS, let's reward them with another chunk of money from which they can steal. Personally, Bush's attempt to let the individual manage their SS account was a great idea, but people are so damn stupid and lazy they let the opportunity slide by. My Mom worked 48 years, with both she and her employer paying into SS all that time. She retired at age 66 and died 8 months later. Guess who gets to keep her money? Most people have the economic IQ of dust.
When the government tales 12.4% of your lifetime earnings for Social Security, it's harder to save on your own.
When the government *takes*
