Article on WorkForce.com House Democrats Contemplate Abolishing 401(k) Tax Breaks.
Powerful House Democrats are eyeing proposals to overhaul the nation’s $3 trillion 401(k) system, including the elimination of most of the $80 billion in annual tax breaks that 401(k) investors receive.

Oh how lovely a brand new and additional tax and social security program.
