"So scams are fine?...Really??"

I didn't say scams were 'fine'.

But scams happen all the time...and many (perhaps, most) are legal.

Buyer beware.

"I think you're just spouting here, quirk"

Probably.

"The people harmed by the transaction had no say."

I imagine each had the choice, from the beginning, of whether or not to transact with the particular institution.

Again: Buyer beware.

Do you know all the institutions your 401K funds contain?

[henry quirk]

I don't have one.

I self-employ: I'll never retire: I'll just die.

*shrug*

Am I mistaken in assuming that 401k programs are voluntary?

I think it depends on where you work and what level your income is. All the companies I have worked for (3) it was voluntary and I chose to just send money to my own investment plans. I still do that.
