The private sector sure as hell won't.
You were out of work for a year and a half? Collect unemployment? Where do you think that came from?
Government is saving you right now. It doesn't matter if it's a Social Security check or a tax deferred saving plan. Government makes it possible. No government, nobody except the wealthiest people will ever live to enjoy retirement.
If you had to rely on the tech sector or the energy sector or the pharmaceutical sector, you'd have been turned into Soylent Green long ago.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
