I bet not. People smart enough to set up a 401(k) are smart enough to
know there's ups and downs in the market, and that even when the
market is down it's still better than the government. After all,
people could have been buying T-bills instead of a 401(k)
participation.



If this plan passes we won't have to worry about being smart
whatsoever. The government will take care of us from cradle to grave.
