I am not a Hillary cheerleader, but I am impressed with this. Both points seem like very good, practical proposals to me.

That is B.S. She wants to make it so much harder for middle class families aspiring to be upper middle class and working extremely hard to do so - she wants to make it so much harder. That is B.S.!!!

The other one that really gets to me is I heard she wants to get eliminate back door Roth IRA. I get that she doesn't want people making $1M plus doing so, but $5500/yr is drop in the bucket for a $1M+ income. The people getting screwed the most are families who make just over the direct Roth IRA income limit and worked very hard to get there.

Also heard that dems, Hillary very much included, wanted to limit total amount in retirement accounts to something like $3M total. Once reaching that, no more contributions allowed. Again total B.S hurting those working hard and aspiring to be upper middle class who aren't there yet. That is terrible B.S. since many employers offer generous matches. Come on Hillary, stop making it even harder!!!

Why has upward mobility actually crashed over the last 30 years when the current rules were in place? You make it sound as if they promoted mobility when in fact your financial status depends on that of your parents more than any time since 1980. Why are you so deceptive? What is your agenda? Compare this to upward mobility in the 1950s or 60s which was a lot higher and before any retirement accounts were in place.
