What do the Democrats plan to do with our 401Ks?

I’ve seen this hinted at on this board, but haven’t actually seen anything other than speculation that the dems want to tax our retirement savings.

They’ll do the European model and raid any 401k worth over say $1.5 million with a “one time” “wealth tax” on every penny over the first $1.5 million.

I don't think that would be politically feasible

It will be once enough illegals have 4.5 amiguitos per familia and those amiguitos grow and have 3.6 amiguitos each as well.

Of course they aren’t gonna tell where they get the coin for freeshit, but their public bribes gotta come from somewhere
Thieves never announce their targets though
Maybe they can start little nest eggs for all LA rodents

That will be the straw that broke the camels back for me. I have very purposely contributed to help ensure my retirement is paid for.

I just did a quick Duck Duck Go search and there are multitudes of articles about it.
Yes, they will if given the opportunity.

401k’s/IRA’s will be included in the formula for means testing Americans who are hoping to receive SSI benefits. Warren’s already talking about similar BS she’s going to enact to shore up SSI, she’s ready to take the cap off FICA.

No offense but that shouldn't be the straw that broke the camel's back. That should have happened years ago. Of course they want your retirement. They always have.

yes they will get their share. I believe the Clintons had it in their sight in the 90s. Jesse Jackson wanted a share for inter city development.

take them and give it to the poor people for votes.

on that note, you know what? why isn't the GOP/Trump using this acceleration for 401 ks? get Beto to say $5M and before you know it Warren will be pushing this for any 401k over 500k. just get them out there promising unicorn shite
do this on every issue

So, they're going to take the cap off contributions ... AND ...

Now of course you mean SS retirement. "SSI" (Supplemental Security Income) is already means tested at the same threshold as Medicaid eligibility.

Only 32% of workers save in a 401k. The average balance is 96,000.
Presumably if they'd be going after 401Ks they'd be going after all retirement accounts in addition to that though

No argument with that, point mainly is that I think this could happen and I am pissed that those bastards will take what I am counting on at the time Im counting on it.
fricking sucks
