21% of private sector employees have defined benefit retirement plans. 1 in 5. Granted that’s down from the levels in 1988.
It drives me nuts to see broad statements that pensions are only in the public sector workforce.
Rather than trying to ripp the pensions from people who still have them, why not argue that this trend should be reversed in the private sector.
