Did yall know that half of black Americans dont have enough savings to retire?

I don't have enought savings to retire. That's why I'm still working.

It takes a lot more money to retire at 50 than it does 70. Most American's don't have enough money to retire on.

I do feel that there are certain things that our government does not encourage that it could.

Why didn' the government encourage people to exercise, take vitamins and supplements, and go outside during the pandemic? They tried to control everything else about our lives during that time.

Why doesn't the government encourage young adults to get job skills - provide career paths in electronics, computers, plumbing, HVAC, etc in our high schools?

Why don't they encourage and educate people to save for retirement?

I'm not asking the government to take control of our lives. I want the government to do a better job of helping us to better control the parts of our lives that the government already controls.
