I have never really worried about whether a company was going to “take care of me”. when choosing jobs.

Good for you. That is not the reality faced by tens of millions of Americans, and billions of people worldwide.

Really? All those people are actually being taken care of by their employers? I doubt it.

Reality lies in between I think. Most folks need some security, but don't have it?

Actually being taken care of, no. But relying on their employers to take care of them and do the right thing, yes. This is an eye-opening event for a lot of people.
Since we are on a technical site where many are in some type of software computer related field, it does apply here.

But “billions of people” worldwide don’t have the luxury of multiple job openings where they can be picky about their employer.
