Correct nothing's guaranteed but to imply that shareholders don't or haven't suffered and that they don't include virtually everyone who has a decent pension is patent nonsense. What real choice does an ordinary pensioner have in what his/her pension fund is invested in? It's all very well banging on about letting companies fail but let's not forget the collateral damage eh? How happy would you be if your partner's pension was decimated through no fault of her own?
