It may be time to take the tax hit and withdraw funds from private retirement accounts before they are forced into long term T-bonds.

 

The Obama administration is reportedly quickly moving on plans to nationalize private 401k and IRA retirement accounts, and replace them with government sponsored annuities(aka Treasury bonds that the Treasury currently can’t sell to anyone but the Fed).

National Seniors Council Director Robert Crone warns: “This whole issue is moving forward very quickly.  Already there is a bill requiring all businesses to automatically enroll their employees in IRA plans in which part of every employee’s paycheck would be automatically deducted and deposited into this account. If this passes, the government will be just one step away from being able to confiscate all these retirement accounts.

All your retirement savings are belong to us:

A recent hearing sponsored by the Treasury and Labor Departments marked the beginning of the Obama Administration’s effort to nationalize the nation’s pension system and to eliminate private retirement accounts including IRA’s and 401k plans, NSC is warning.

 

The hearing, held in the Labor Department’s main auditorium, was monitored by NSC staff and featured a line up of left-wing activists including one representative of the AFL-CIO who advocated for more government regulation over private retirement accounts and even the establishment of government-sponsored annuities that would take the place of 401k plans.

 

“This hearing was set up to explore why Americans are not saving as much for their retirement as they could,” explains National Seniors Council National Director Robert Crone, “However, it is clear that this is the first step towards a government takeover. It feels just like the beginning of the debate over health care and we all know how that ended up.”

 

A representative of the liberal Pension Rights Center, Rebecca Davis, testified that the government needs to get involved because 401k plans and IRAs are unfair to poor people. She demanded the Obama administration set up a “government-sponsored program administered by the PBGC (the governments’ Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation).” She proclaimed that even “private annuities are problematic.”

 

Such “reforms” would effectively end private retirement accounts in America, Crone warns. “These people want the government to require that ultimately all Americans buy these government annuities instead of saving or investing on their own. The Government could then take these trillions of dollars and redistribute it through this new national retirement system.”

 

Deputy Treasury Secretary J. Mark Iwry, who presided over the hearing, is a long-time critic of 401k plans because he believes they benefit the rich. He also appears to be one of the Administration’s point man on this issue.

 

“This whole issue is moving forward very quickly,” warns Crone. “Already there is a bill requiring all businesses to automatically enroll their employees in IRA plans in which part of every employee’s paycheck would be automatically deducted and deposited into this account. If this passes, the government will be just one step away from being able to confiscate all these retirement accounts.”

Please realize that this is 100% about funding $1.5 TRILLION annual deficits using Americans’ retirement funds, as there is simply no other remaining pool of wealth able to soak up $1.5 Trillion in T-bills annually.

 

If the US government was put in charge of the Sahara Desert, there would not be a grain of sand remaining in 6 months.

 

Got PHYZZ?

  • As I've never had any retirement account since I worked construction all my life and my wife already pulled her little pittance of a 401 I'm not worried about mine but I'm worried about my disability that I get for working for 40yrs and paid in to get. But you can believe I'll be beside any and all to fight this illegal take over of all we hold dear. Twana you have asked what each of us can bring to this fight or skills I have 40 yrs in building plus my welding truck to build bunkers from scratch and a dead eye when it comes down to it plus n above average IQ. If you know anyone that wants bunkers made I'm available.

    • Ronald, I share your sentiment.  A Tennessean who is living in Ohio for now.

  • Only the government would think that buying T-Bills would be a good solution.  I would not invest in a company I did not trust to earn a profit, why would I or anyone invest in the government hardly anyone trusts these days.  The government would only do what it has with the Social Security Trust account... SPEND IT!  Young folk should worry and quit supporting this give away of their money to those that want handouts without any accountability.

    Semper Fi

    • I have been watching this for a year of more, but it was pushed into the background with the election.  Get ready as Obama gets into his 2d term.  He feels as if he can do what ever he desires, and I do not have any confidence that the Republicans will stop him.  Obama will probably require that all employees will have to have deducted a percentage of pay to go into federal government, but the government will only pay to those who the government is deserving.  The over reach of the federal government of the last 4 years was just the warm up of what is to come.

  • American Patriots, in the Revolutionary war, the War of 1812, the Civil War, World War I & !!, the Korean War, Viet Nam, Iraq I & II, Afghanistan, and now Africa, WILLINGLY took up arms and were WILLING to lay down their lives, to shed their own BLOOD, to fight in these wars......BUT OUR GUTLESS MILITARY will NOT attack the DOMESTIC ENEMIES that have SIEZED OUR GOVERNMENT in our own country.   YOU'RE GUTLESS TRAITORS.....ALL OF YOU!!!

    •  It is from the Heart and soul that men and women arise to the task of giving ones life for those he or she has never met, and I assure you many have come long before your pathetic life and gave there all to preserve your freedom. They gave there tomorrow for your today.

       

      I would like to see your spineless pathetic face before any who have served and open your mouth, because you would be wearing your backside for a front side, your remark reminds me of those spineless individuals who ran to Canada or went to the North to have the pictures taken showing the TREASONOUS acts towards the young men and women serving in Southeast Asia. It is with great pleasure we will suspend your likes, go back to your pathetic closet!
