112. PBS had a special a couple of years ago about 401k vs pensions
and concluded that a pension plan manager had to do well each year to keep his/her job, and so pensioners were, of course, far better off and the money grew at faster rates and was safer, etc.

The show also went well into Nixon, the ramp up and who was involved and why 401k's were catapulted onto unsuspecting citizens.

We should find info about that show - it really, really was informative and clearly outlined what a friggin' scam it is.
