In Response to Re: Obama To Nationalize Pension System; Eliminate IRA’s & 401Ks: Now our government gets more and more encouraging people to be lazy and poor, and punishing the savers and workers. The real rich are not goting to get hurt. It will hurt the middle class. Posted by lilly1966 Nothing more disgusting to me and DOWNRIGHT EVIL than people who have more money in THEIR pockets due to other's who aren't paid enough for all the comforts they provide all of society.....the GAUL to mock poor people is beyond my comprehension and nowhere near Christ-like. I shall PRAY every night that GOD will give these people who mock and call others poor and lazy ---a royal kick in the butt so they will know exactly how it feels to be poor.. ....because tomorrow ---anyone can become disabled---or have health event in their lives---a job loss and can't find another. |

I watched $82,000.00 of $120,000.00 401K evaporate the week after 911. Gambling your retirement on the stock market, as far as I'm concerned, is stupid anyway. There are no guarantees in the stock market. I finally pulled the remainder and put it in a Roth IRA, but the lost money is just that..... lost money. |

I'm sure many 1% insiders avoided most losses.

Jan, chivalry and compassion is disappearing from our society. I can proudly say my children are good citizens, who care about the less fortunate.Response to Re: Obama To Nationalize Pension System; Eliminate IRA’s & 401Ks: In Response to Re: Obama To Nationalize Pension System; Eliminate IRA’s & 401Ks : Nothing more disgusting to me and DOWNRIGHT EVIL than people who have more money in THEIR pockets due to other's who aren't paid enough for all the comforts they provide all of society.....the GAUL to mock poor people is beyond my comprehension and nowhere near Christ-like.

The nerve of President Obama, trying to educate and encourage the lower class worker to save for the future.

Response to Re: Obama To Nationalize Pension System; Eliminate IRA’s & 401Ks : Posted by mandm84 Maybe so, or they have so many other investments that offset their losses. I'm just a working man, a trucker, that thought I was doing good by saving and contributing to my 401K every pay day. I'll never have another 401K. The only bad part of this idea of a National Pension System, is, once again government gets a little bigger. |
