the current retirement system continues to exclude millions of Americans who lack access to 401(k)s and similar employer-sponsored plans.
The 'lack of access' to retirement plans doesn't sound like the real reason - it's more like the complete lack of actual 'saving'.

True, these people still have access to IRAs.

The 'lack of access' to retirement plans doesn't sound like the real reason It isn't a reason at all. How hard is it to call up a bank or investment firm and open an IRA?

it's more like the complete lack of actual 'saving'. Modified slightly to: it's more like the complete lack of actual 'investing'.

Financial discipline is lacking from the top of this country all the way down....
I can start retirement accounts, if I so choose, in 30 seconds with fidelity for myself, my wife and if I wanted, my children.
Issue is putting money away. Gotta remember people out there are paying for groceries on payment plans.......
