Let's say, hypothetically, that someone is not as good as you at stock picking, and they make extremely bad investment choices, added and abetted by an army of "wolves of wall street" all selling penny stocks that "are guaranteed to go big".
Once they arrive at their 0% ROI at retirement stage, don't they rely then on a government-provided safety net for various survival needs? Shouldn't the government then have a say, or at least some interest, in decreasing the probability of such extremely bad choices?
