Once the company provides everything, they are in an excellent position to alter the deal, and they will.

Sure. Same thing with government managed pensions. Same thing with market managed pensions. There is no certainty in life.

"Everything has risks, so reducing risks is meaningless" doesn't sound like particularly sound stance to take, especially on an issue like housing.

I don't think it is a given that not relying on corporate pensions is reducing risk. I'm curious what percentage of people have been burned by unpaid/underpaid corporate pensions vs thinking they could rely on social security/government programs for retirement.

Everything has risks, so reducing risks is meaningless; increase the rewards you are extracting for taking those risks.
