Clinton Proposes 401(k)s, Matching Funds

Having abandoned her scheme to hand every baby $5,000 of other people's money, Hillary Clinton has settled on a new vote-buying plan: a 401(k) retirement account with up to $1,000 per year in federal matching funds for each citizen.

Estimated cost is $20–25 billion per year, making it the biggest leap toward socialism proposed by hillary after universal health insurance.

How will the government come up with such massive quantities of cash you ask?

By stealing it from the rich, naturally! This has the added benefit of imposing economic equality between those who produce wealth and those who don't.

Onwards toward socialism, comrades!

by the way...what in the is the difference between the government giving each worker $1,000/year and allowing workers to put $1,000 of their annual payroll taxes in a 401k?

Oh, and I'm holding out for a free High Def Television...and a Tivo...my vote doesn't come cheap!
