In the United Corporate States of America, manufacturing goes to those countries most willing to enslave 1/2 their population to make shit for greedy American business leaders to increase their profits to inflate their stock price and in turn improve the corporate leaders compensation “package”. Americans need to quit buying Chinese plastic shit or we become a shit nation.
We need to replace the 401K with good old fashion pensions. Forcing retirement compensation into the stock market empowers “investment” managers with too much money that they use to beat on corporations to increase profits and that leads to offshoring work. Employee owned companies offering pensions will focus attention back to good stewardship of companies to benefit America and American workers.
Put government employees on 401K’s and American private sector employees back on pensions and you will see shit change.
I was recently wondering whatever happened to Americans getting pensions from their employers, and I’m not referring to our worthless politicians who award themselves multiple pensions for running the country into the ground.
You and your wife are very fortunate! I haven’t heard of any employers doing that around here. We’re expected to live off the government’s “generous” Social Security and our own 401ks.
You may have been mislead slightly. My retirement was from a job I worked back in the 80s for a short time, so that one pays me less than $100 a month. :)
My wife retired from the state education system. She didn't make a lot in pay, but there was a lot put away for retirement. When we finish with Dave Ramsey, we'll be okay.

I'm getting one from my former employer, and my wife is getting one from hers.
