    401ks directly replaced pensions for most Americans. It’s disingenuous to claim they’re “in no way comparable.”

      Yeah? Cars replaced horses for most Americans.

      The mechanism of operation is so different that they cannot be considered the same thing. Even though they are used for similar purposes, they are not reasonably comparable.
