I doubt it. George does well with business owners. With their support, he will be re-elected. Then it will be Jebs turn for 8 yrs. At that point, the baby boomers will face retirement and sickness. Until then, taxpayers are only looking at their next paycheck. Also, putting 2% of S.S. into the stock market will make Harry Dent look like a genius. (Roaring 2000's). But, a little known mandate, that the treasury has adhered to since the unemployment of the 70's, is to keep full employment at any cost. And why not. With taxes between 50-70%, the gov is our partner. They want us to work. At least until we are ready to retire. Then a nice market crash will insure we work till 70 or drop dead. Just an opinion of one.
