Most don't save $20k/yr - but some do. And many are required to put a good chunk in. If you're a public employee in a state where you have a defined contribution plan, you may be required to put 7%, 9%, 12%, even 15% of your salary into the plan each year. That's teachers, firefighters, cops, local and state government employees, etc. For many, that's going to be many thousands each year.
To say that the vast majority lives paycheck to paycheck may be correct, but that does not mean they're not forced to save money in a 401(k) even if they weren't so inclined to.
