I think your CPA isn't the smartedest. There are times when it sucks, but tell me how it would suck for a person investing while they make $40k/year now and expect to start making $500k/year later. Pay minimal taxes on it now and later it grows like a weed, oblivious to your high tax bracket.
Most people wouldn't care, since most people have no real retirement savings (they're too dumb to realize they are probably going to be seniors one day), but on the other hand the lobbiests and all that are richer people and people more likely to have a roth, so hopefully the gov't won't try it
That would suck and seems very underhanded to me. We've already paid money into it and it wouldn't be cool to tax again.My biggest problem is if in the future govt decides to tax Roth IRA as well.
