There are various kinds of investments where you defer paying taxes. Those who are still working, trying to reduce taxes with their current income could invest on various funds.
The 403b plans are retirement for teachers and university professors and professionals, to defer taxes from income while working. I have 403b. These funds are invested and grow for a period of time. Then they are required or allowed to withdraw a certain percent annually. These funds are taxable upon withdrawal. The State, School, or University invest these funds, and the company who handles the fund issue the 1099 at year-end showing how much was withdrawn and taxes withheld. Normally withheld ends up lesser than your total tax liability. Purpose of these investments are for growth of income, and deferral of taxes.
All these deferred compensations are invested for a number of years to grow retirement income.

There is also the 401k retirement fund. This fund is common to most private companies issued as benefit to their employees. The employee and employer pay certain percent from their salaries to invest. The taxes are also deferred upon retirement, when a certain percent is allowed for withdrawal every year. The retiree receives the 1099 as well to report this in the year-end tax report.
When working for State or City government, these are the kinds of deferred taxes compensations. Pers 1, Pers 2, and 3, defending upon the dates you've started working.
All these PERS have the shared percentage when the Employer-Employee match contributions as benefits while working.
Besides the PERS, there is also that state retirement funds called '"Deferred Compensation Plan." All these funds are invested to various kinds of companies. Employee pays all the deferred amount. Upon reaching retirement age of 65 or longer, withdrawals are allowed. At age 70 withdrawals are required. The State or Cities where you worked issue 1099 as well for tax reporting purposes. These funds are all invested to various company to grow.
When retired, gather all your 1099, to report to your tax form. These retirement funds are only one of the income sources. Others have many sources of various income to report for tax purposes.
Joe Biden is finding all kinds of loopholes to gather more taxable income. Those who did not work, or with no income depend upon the SSI or redistributions from Joe Biden taken from our taxes. That is why they all vote for Joe even when he is doing a grossly incompetent job. Along with corruptions. Congress knows all about his records. He stumbles all over the places. He must retire, if I were him.
Other states or cities, counties, and the Federal employees have various kinds of employee benefits and deferred retirement plans, not mentioned above.
There are many incompetent employees at the Federal level. They were hired for their political affiliation, or DEI, and not by the merit system.
