My guess is 100%


They're going to confiscate 401k's first but will float it with "we're taking it only from Bezo's, Gates etc" to see the appetite. No one will say boo and then everyone's is gone under the guise of "you'll get it back - just from us, not your 401k account"


Um, that is a literal "[bleep] it, I'm watering the tree" moment.

There's a lotta people that would realize that, if everything you've worked your life for is taken, at that point, well, the juice IS worth the squeeze.....


They will take it all right... after they crash the market... then they will tell you capitalism is too risky and we will honor your account and control it.... and you will get 2% interest and limited withdrawals.... all for the good of the "collective"



Similar happened in The Netherlands.
