        to the recent confiscation of private student loan programs.

        Presently there is a strong possibility that private retirement
        programs may be confiscated.  Why is this?  These are economic

        systems and freedoms – your life contributions and financial
        freedoms; they are a financially needed resource not previously

        tapped by the government.  Like the union bosses cavorting with
        organized crime, retirement accounts were plundered for decades

        and now retirees are learning that their funds may not exist.  There
        is a call for the government to guarantee these programs for the

        benefit of the unwittingly impacted retirees.  The crisis that cannot
        be ignored is that private retirement funds cannot be trusted.  The

        truth of the matter is that these untapped funds to be confiscated
        would be used for various unfundable government programs.  This is

        similar to the ‘IOU’ plundering of Social Security for decades to fund
        the growing Parasitic Cult programs.  This is a nice way of saying

        there is not enough taxable income or assets.  The government is
        operating multiple Ponzi schemes to fund the current and future

        Parasitic Cult generations, and at great costs to our future Fiscal
        Culture generations.  Moreover, the current ongoing reduction of

        payroll taxes to wage earners is exacerbating the Social Security
        Ponzi scheme.  It is a feel-good measure of several years.  Payroll

        taxes are those taxes the employees and employers pay towards the
        Social Security; each pays half of their obligation, with self-employed

        paying their full obligation.  For decades the program was annually

        underfunded with less paying in than those rightfully paid from their
        life of earnings.  These payroll tax cuts are not tax cuts – every
        American pays the same income taxes they would otherwise pay.
