@pluralistic "Jimmy Carter adopted a handful of Friedman’s measures — neutering anti-trust law and kicking the supports out from under guaranteed pensions in favor of “market-based” 401(k) pensions that forced workers to gamble against sophisticated stock brokers for the chance of a dignified old age." I am so very glad Cory has said that 401(k)s are gambling. The entire stock market is nothing but rich people gambling with their money and ours.
