I never said it was. My only point is that when our pension went away, it became incumbent upon us to make lifestyle changes since our retirement became our issue rather than the company's. I wish we all had a pension and could afford a Cadillac a month like the old days, but it just isn't the case. We are responsible for ourselves and have been for the better part of a decade.
