Let me put it another way. Retirement is a predictable and forseeable problem. One can reasonably assume that as one advances in years, one will want to continue to consume goods and services, and that one will be either unwilling or unable to work in order to fund that consumption. Thus, isn't the moral thing to do to save in proper amounts to fund one's retirement, rather than leaving that problem to be solved by future generations?
So you put 12.4% of your income (to some limit), your employer matches it and vwala! You've saved for retirement!!
