Five Europe states, Hungary, Bulgaria, Poland, France and Ireland, have attempted tried to get hold of people's pensions and or savings or their own use.
People’s retirement savings are a convenient source of revenue for governments that don’t want to reduce spending or make privatizations and the U.S. Is next.
Don't think that U.S. lawmakers have any regard for you or your personal savings or money they might owe you ..like Social Security... as untouchable. Government has a habit of looking out for itself.
The attempt is coming or at least it will be suggested/proposed by a member or members of US Congress.
