Liberals are a curious mix of communism and fascism, they want to destroy you but want to use your own money to do it.

I'd rather be CALLED a fascist then BE a liberal.

Only 3 years past retirement age. And every one on here says you need several million to afford retirement.

It's important, but I wouldn't go without wants that you can afford just to max out your 401k.
