I've never really believed in the concept of a 401K. It's always seemed to be a scam to me to only help corporations. They get an influx of money to make more money and we became dependent on what's essentially "gambling" called speculation.
The inventor didn’t intend for it to replace pensions but like you mention - companies found a way to profit off of it. Its why all the calls for us to invest our soc sec funds are scary
Looking and acting like he does with that last name must’ve made middle school hilariously unbearable for him. No wonder he’s typically such a douchey.
Trump and his family probably been busy buying and selling stocks lately!!! He threatened tariffs , market crashed, they bought, he pulled back tariffs, stocks gone up, they sold. He doesn’t have time to fix your egg price MAGA!!
Because they are feeling it too. You think your own 401k is going bad? Imagine you make 3 million a year as a Fox host and think how much their investments have lost. Hundreds of thousands most likely.
Wait a minute. Vance thinks retired people are wasting resources using Medicare and SocSec and should keep working or die, yet Musk wants those working to leave their jobs and retire? And now trump is tanking the markets so the retired can't even rely on their own savings?
I remember when GWB was pushing full privatization conversions and would have tossed most into the market. The 2008 crash happened and everyone said NOPE. I’m in my 6th decade still working and hubs just applied. If they wreck job, SS, & 401-k I don’t have time to start over again.
Not only are retirement accounts getting throttled, housing prices are going down all across the DMV, at a sudden rate.
We need housing prices to go down, yes, but we can't expect people to RETIRE, & DOWNSIZE, at the same time their HOUSE VALUE PLUMMETS. They're not able to live off that money!
THANK YOU! Very different vibe, very different country, different language, etc.
Their history pre-independence is also starkly different:
Slovakia=part of Czechoslovakia
Slovenia=part of Yugoslavia
Send an email to the White House now. Can’t get through on the phone.
This is insane. Trump and elon et al will destroy US if we don’t act now. https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/
"Well, I'm glad you brought up workers because that's exactly who President Trump is looking out for with his America First trade policy and his America First economic agenda," she claimed. "And if you look, there's great indication to be optimistic about where the economy stands."
That’s me. I’m less than 10 years away, but now I wonder what will be in my 401K and if they will steal my social security that I have been paying into for over 40 years.
Its a great argument, but even using the word forced retirement is disingenuous. Less than 4% of Federal workers are over the age of 65. The vast majority of workers are under 55, so won't be collecting on their retirement....they'll be unemployed or transitioning to private employment.

Conservatives turned that into the trailer park from hell.
Never forget that.

Something Dem Leadership can't seem to do even when Dear Leader hands them every opportunity to do so.
Hegseth too
