Economics

Okay we discuss some fairly inane topics when seeding… sometimes we’ll tackle more substantial ideas.

I assume there will be government intervention in the markets before the end of Trump’s term, and the folks pulling strings always come up with new ways to keep the party going.

Would you support > Patriot Accounts - idea $20K invested into an equities portfolio for anyone under age 20 when COVID started (say March 2020) or born since that is transferred to each individual at their 25th birthday.

Idea is to both compensate folks whose education was impacted and create a leveling agent for future generations.  

To make it more popular - limit the investments into US companies who commit to onshore their profits as a way to help encourage reinvestment in America.

Would provide a bridge for a shift toward broadening future social security investments

Curious what folks think of this crazy idea ?

Growing veggies for the fine folks of Southeastern Massachusetts, w/ a focus on nutrient quality. Always interested in the evolution of digital payments.  🎩 

Not super crazy at all. The Social Security fund is pretty much bankrupt and only realistically lasts until 2030. They have to do something if they want to keep up the social safety net here.
