Now I'm not a financial planner or CPA, but its not my understanding that corporations can just plunder pensions.
Yes, this was a rigged game. By Corporations and Labor as well. Everyone benefited. But for the most part, everyone followed the law. And frankly, I think everyone believed that it was safe. We were all wrong.
That said, I agree 100% that we need to rethink how we fund retirement.
And while I'm very libertarian in my thinking, CTY's right about people. I am very concerned about what will happen to most of us today who don't have those great pension plans in place. Most people aren't capable of setting aside enough of their retirement. This could well be a future crisis.
