mrstickball, how well is the current 401K system working to insure people can retire?  In my case, my 401K disappeared in a failed business venture, after I withdrew it.  I had like $36K and it went away.  As it is now, with myself over 40, and job prospects grim, I don't expect to ever retire.  I will have to keep working until I drop dead.  If I get so laid up I can't work, I guess maybe society can take me out somewhere and shoot me, so I don't burden tax payers, like was seen in this reply to my story here:

I THINK SUICIDE WOULD WORK FOR THIS LOSER.STOP HIS WHINING AND REDUCE MY TAXES.WHAT A JERKOFF.

A variant on this is the state sets up termination of life areas, and people who owe money would sign up, and be killed off.  Their organs could be harvested and sold off to the highest bidder, to pay of debts of all sort.  Such things would be a boon for society, and could actually result in hiring people.
