I don't do Roth IRA's. Why? You figure it out...but it has to deal with trust. I know damn well they're going to tax the gains, even though I paid taxes up front when I put the money in. There's not a politician in the world that can see a dollar go by without trying to put their hands on it. No matter what "promises" were made. I wonder why the "promise" of S.S. is so sacred to them. I guess it's the revenue stream and the need to keep it flowing by keeping the monkeys staring into the distance instead of doing the math.

www.starvingthemonkeys.com/I hate to be a grump, but I don't trust the 401k, IRA, etc BS at all. I put in enough to get my match, and that's it. No debt is more important to me than stashing money in some hoodwink that the man pulled over everybody. How the hell is anybody going to retire on a few hundred K in a 401k account?

Well, rest easy fellow Americans. Even with unprecedented matters at hand, our government is taking the day off to observe Columbus day. I'm sure they think its a well deserved day off! Fries my ass they can even think about taking a day off. Why do I get to work, or demand my employees sometimes cancel family vacations to meet deadlines. The light bulb has finally gone off in my head as to where American's Entitlement Theory originates....Washington. My respect and "American Pride" has hit a whole new level... Rant off.

Every day off for the government is a good day for average Americans. I wish they would take the next 4 years off.

A very near dear to me friend gets a WICK (sp?) card for food. Like it was 16 lousy bucks a month. Now shes been notified that the economy is on the upswing so it was reduced to $15. Yes, that's $3.75 per god damn week. I really wonder what the complimentary mickey friggin McDs at the capitol cafeteria cost John Q Taxpayer ? The honest answer is ZERO; prime rib is served daily. Maybe they'll all have attacks and KACK... ws

I love it. Bring on the "default". Don't listen to the stupid media, it really doesn't mean shit. GOP has the upper hand, and kudos to them for finally growing some balls.
