If you like your retirement.....................from Rico

The House passed CR Omnibus (lovingly called cromnibus, but cramnibus would have been more apt) at almost midnight last night.
- Christmas came early for the government (there hasn't been a 'budget' since 2007 btw) thanks to the Congresscritters who were (a) anxious to stick it to the taxpayer one last time while they had the chance, (b) reward their special interest benefactor$, and (c) in a hurry to leave the District of Criminals and go home to enjoy their personal holidays.

The US would have been far better off with a government shut down, than it is now thanks to these criminal weasels.

Here's one example:
- Included in this bill are pension cuts for retirees. You read that right...if you are ALREADY retired, your pension benefits can be retroactively CUT.
- The bill opens the door to cuts for retirees later, as well.

Retirees thought their retirements were "safe" but they were not, thanks to Congress. The rules of the game have changed. The goal posts have been moved.
- The only thing missing from this is Barry announcing "If you like your retirement, you can keep your retirement."

Watch for more "reform" talk in future.
- Retirement plan reform.

Just like 'national healthcare' was imposed, so will 'national retirement' next be imposed.
- Instead of mistakenly thinking your 401K's and other retirement funds are "safe" you should already be thinking about whether you will select the "bronze" retirement plan or the "silver" retirement plan they will offer you.

The government now knows they can force the public to buy their product, and fine them if they refuse (ObamaCare).
- They will next force the public into 'safe' government retirement annuities and bonds while taking the trllions of private cash from taxpayer accounts to distribute/redistribute as they see fit.

When a bankrupt and insolvent government needs money, they will steal it from their subjects. For their own good, of course. To help them, of course.
- "All your money are belong to us."

Next we will talk about how this legislation also shifts massive private banker derivative bets onto the taxpayers backs........
