The 401(k) Was Never Intended to Be the Retirement Plan
The [Raleigh NC] News & Observer 
[Opinion] Dec. 1, 2013
"In 1981, the 401(k) was expanded into a supplemental retirement plan, and the IRA was enlarged so that people with traditional defined benefit retirement plans could also contribute to IRAs and still get a tax deduction. These changes seemed fairly enlightened. Ironically, this marked the beginning of the end of America's progress toward retirement security."
