This is actually good news. The Democrats want us to have a retirement fund. The Republicans wanted to give it to private investors to blow.

This is not about Social Security Caymen. This is about the 401k's that many of us have scraped and saved on our own over the years so that we may be able to be comfortable in our retirement.

Ah Snopes, what would we do without you.
Google retirement windfall tax, and this pops up first.

I'm betting that this internet myth morphed out of another actual issue that has come forth off and on over the last several years, particularly since the Democrat Party regained majority control of Congress in 2006, and this issue seems to pop up just about every quarter after the oil companies and other big corporations release their quarterly statements.
That's when we start to hear the demagogues spewing their horse squeeze about "record profits", "excessive profits", "windfall profits", and such. And then come the call for a "windfall profit tax" on oil companies and other "evil" corporations, usually from Democrats and a few RHINOs. If this kind of tax is passed, it will hurt anyone with a 401K, a union pension, or just about any other pension or retirement plan, because investments in oil companies and other "evil" corporations make up a large part of those types of retirement plans.
This is nothing more than another "spread the wealth" Marxist/Socialist forced income redistribution scheme. So if Pelosi was one of those calling for a windfall profit tax, then she is indeed a Marxist/Socialist.
The only "retirement fund" that Democrats "want us to have" is a gov't-controlled retirement, so that we're more dependent on gov't and to buy them more votes and power. Can you really say that you support such a thing, given what a mess gov't has made of Social Security over the last 70 years (under a largely Democrat-controlled Congress, with the exception of 1994-2006)?
"Giving it to private investors" means letting individuals have the freedom to invest their own money, not trust gov't to safeguard it. I sure as heck don't trust that there will be SS for me when I retire, what I'm being taxed on now is paying for current SS recipients.

What windfall profits? I lost 2/3 the value of my 401k this year.
On one hand if Pelosi wants profits to tax she will have to take measures to pump up the stock market, something that Democrats generally do not know how to do. On the other hand, she freely admits that she wants to take money from some people and give it to other people. I would call her a Communist, yes.

You guys are factually challenged. (again) You seem to want more of the same?? Can you not read a newspaper? The economy is in ruins. Is it impossible for you to see that your version of 'tax code" HAS NOT WORKED?? The stock market has crashed. There are no jobs, we are at a COMPLETE standstill, and you want to keep in place Mr Bush's tax cuts for the wealthy?? Give me a break. I have seen more sense from a fire hydrant.

I couldn't have said it better! Hats off mate!
Frank, please post your address, I can send you my tax bill since I believe I pay my fair share and not a penny more.
If Obama surely knows and cares about the American public, don't you think he would take care of that first rather than gitmo? Sure he cares about you and I more than terrorists, aka the dude that was released and is now the head of Al-queda in yeman. Did you hear what happen too? Obama ordered a strike in Pakistan to kill terrorists and civilians were killed as well! Ah, so spin that and blame Bush?? I'll pen the phrase: "Obama lied, people died!"
And explain Robert Reich's comments too. I'd like to hear that opinion as well.

Ah, the rest of the country finally gets a load of Pelosi... Not pretty, is it? She's a nutcase, and it'll only get worse.
WAIT! Next the 'truth' about our new prez will start rearing it's ugly head soon.
He's a product of the Cook County Democratic machine, and no politician from Cook County is on the level. Anyone on here that lives in or near Chicago can tell you that. (Except for frank, that is...)
