RE: "Why is it capped at $1,000 savings per year?...That's a pittance."

I agree. If the savings cap is $1k, then this isn't worth it at all.

If the savings cap is $3.6k, then it is worth it.

People in their 20s and 30s can grow this 3X (when corrected for inflation), so 3.6*3 = 11k, so that's a fair deal.

But agree, the 1k is not. It's pittance.

RE: That would be inviting disaster

Okay.

RE: "What if there is an emergency "

Make it exactly like the rules for the IRA, but even more conservative. They've already done the thinking on this.

RE: " you have to figure out how to pay for it."

Graham's proposal pays for it, which is why it's better than Bush's.
