While the government is throwing away the money of grandkids and great-great-great-grandkids, I would like to see the government deposit $1,000 for each person in the United States into the Thrift Savings plan that Congress and all government employees have.
At 300 million people, times $1,000, that would be $300 billion.
That way, everyone would own a piece of the stock market and America. It might help the stock market and the IRAs.
If that were to happen, it might give employees and employers incentive to add to it in the future, if the government would add some tax breaks for it.
