Social Security's $2.7T trust fund shows government failure in action. Bureaucrats locked Americans' retirement money into Treasury bonds earning just 4.8% while the S&P 500 delivered 11% returns since 1971. That decision cost taxpayers $12.3T in lost wealth—money that could have secured benefits without raising taxes. The math is clear: If D.C. had invested 40% in equities decades ago, the fund would be $15T today. Instead, they trapped your retirement in low-yield paper while Wall Street prospered. Real reform means breaking free from Treasury dependence. A sovereign wealth fund owned by taxpayers, not agencies, could extend solvency past 2032 through market returns. No new taxes needed. The "ultra-wealthy" tax proposals miss the point. This isn't about redistribution—it's about unleashing American capital from bureaucratic chains. Smart investing beats bureaucratic control every time.

@friedberg Investing in the SPX is a solution to all our financial woes? Unless, we really think 500 companies can serve the needs of our entire country (it can’t). The incentive structure that would materialize from these endless flows would cause greater wealth disparity, not less.

@friedberg How to save SS: for the next 80 years slowly transition, 1.25% a year, accounts to private. This removes politicians thinking they can use our retirement investments for their self serving programs and hands that money back to those who actually earned it.

I wrote this as a response. I hope it helps. Basically, the $spy mainly goes up bc of inflation. If you are worried about compound interest, lower inflation and bonds will perform. Also, by entering into the $spy, the govt creates all kinds of adverse incentives that will widen the wealth gap See below:

@friedberg The government forced the citizens to loan it money at a crappy interest rate and stuck them with huge opportunity costs AND used the money as a giant vote-buying slush fund. Put the assets back under the ownership and control of the beneficiaries

@friedberg It is a bit ironic that a bunch of wealthy dudes proposed socialism (American gov owning US equities through the SS fund) as a fix for our American dream as if it was an original thought

🚨Should the US create a Sovereign Wealth Fund? Chamath and Friedberg discuss Chamath: “I think that we should start a sovereign wealth fund right now.” “The great news is that these Trump tariff deals come with huge amounts of capital that these other countries have committed to spending inside the United States.” “We've exceeded $1T of inbound capital on the investment side. We get 90% of the upside.” “A lot of that capital should be the seed capital for a sovereign wealth fund.” Friedberg: “The concern I have is anytime we create a new income stream at the federal government, or we have some sort of growing asset that you mark up on the book, someone tends to invest ahead of the curve on that.” “Meaning someone takes that and they're like, ‘Oh, great, I can spend more now.’ I mean, we even saw this in California (with) Gavin Newsom and the budget skyrocketed as the income went up.” “Rather than take the surplus and book it for a rainy day, they went and spent ahead of it, and then all of a sudden they had a huge deficit.” “Which is what happened with Social Security is, it's like, okay, all these people are providing this income every year to the federal government, which they're supposed to be paying into their Social Security Trust Fund, which is gonna go bankrupt sometime between 2030 and 2033.” “But then what happened is we raided the coffers, we took all that money, and we started spending it on random new programs.” “And the problem is, by giving the government more assets, by giving the government more income, we set ourselves up for a circumstance where the federal government, the Congress says, ‘Great, we got more money to spend. Let's do X, Y, and Z program and let's do this. Let's build a high speed train. Let's do this. These are all good for American people.’” “And all of a sudden, you don't actually solve any real problems. And this is why my argument is that we should use it to fill the hole that we have, for example, in Social Security.” “And that needs to become an asset that's strictly used as an offset on Social Security, because if you don't put it in that box, it just becomes another spending mechanism.”

“How did the American Dream die? How did the Middle Class die? I'm going to tell you” Every person in America needs to understand this - It started in the 1980s with trickle down economics that did not work. They decided to give tax cuts to the rich incorporation saying that money would trickle down. It didn't. It just made the rich richer - Then we greenlit stock buybacks so instead of when the productivity was going up, instead of giving workers more money, they just bought back their stock so the shareholders could make profit and executives could get bonuses - Then we had leveraged buyouts and the government didn't regulate leverage buyouts. And that was the start of private equity basically buying up everything so that they could make more money - Then we moved away from pensions to 401ks which essentially just took the responsibility and accountability of the company to take care of their workers with the retirement and put it on to individuals. But we were never taught economics in high school. So how the f*ck are we supposed to know about compound interest and investing? But they said the 401k was better than the pension, when it wasn't - Then they started shipping our jobs overseas, building the middle class of other countries so that they could make more profit destroying the middle class here. Then we started ramping up the borrowing money and getting into debt as a country which devalues our dollar. - Then in 2008 we had predatory lending which crashed the housing market, fucked over so many Americans. And then we used taxpayer money to bail out the banks. And when all the houses were cheap, the the rich went and bought those up. And that's when you started to see the rent start to increase around the 2010s into the 2015s - Then in 2011 we allowed super PACs to exist so billionaires can now buy elections and they use that money on attack ads. Which divides the country. Divide and conquer. And that's what they did - In 2020 we had the pandemic which both sides of the aisle handled like absolute shit. Shut down all small businesses, all the money went to the top. The rich got richer. They printed trillions of dollars more which people needed. But what did all the people do? We spent the money cause we needed to spend the money. And where did that money go? To the top. And they got richer. - Lastly they decided during the pandemic let's lower the interest rates on buying a home to 2 and a half to 3% so that people could refinance and get ahead. But no, all that really did was give the green light to a bunch of rich people to basically borrow free money. And buy up all the f*cking housing so that we can no longer own a home. And that all ended in 2021. Then we've experienced 25% inflation since the pandemic and here we are in 2025, and we no longer have a middle class, and the American dream is dead.”

🚨NEW: Antonio Gracias Antonio Gracias talks about how the fraud in Social Security and Voter Fraud works (12 MINUTES OF MUST WATCH) GRACIAS: "In 2021, 270,000 non-citizens got social security numbers. In 2024, 2.1M non-citizens got social security numbers. We went in to find fraud and found this by accident. I'm an immigrant by the way, this is non-political. There's a lot of people in Government that took huge risk to get us this information and show us what's going on. These are very good people. I have been from DC, to the social security offices, to the border to track this down." MUSK: "People think that Biden was asleep at the switch. They weren't asleep at the switch. It was a massive large scale program to import as many illegals as possible, ultimately to change the entire voting map of the United States and disenfranchise the American people and making it a deep blue one party state from which there would be no escape." GRACIAS: "Human Traffickers made $13-15B off of this. This is a human tragedy. We created a system that created an incentive for people to come here and get taken advantage of by these traffickers." MUSK: "This is not made up by the right. This is absolutely true...The real reason for these attacks and the burning of the cars, is that we're going to turn off the payments to illegals...I think this is the biggest voter fraud in the history of America by far. If the machine behind the Kamala puppet had won then they would have legalized all the illegals and there would be no swing states."

You Heard It Here First: Chamath Predicts US Sovereign Wealth Fund Template On E212 (Jan 24th), the besties discussed Donald J. Trump floating the idea of the US government owning 50% of TikTok in exchange for a permit to operate. Chamath Palihapitiya thought this could be a template for the future: "There's a question that this raises, which is, does it make sense for the American government to be a little bit smarter going forward about how it allocates incentives and resources?" "Wouldn't it make sense where when you create incredible economic incentives and upside for private investors and investment, for some portion of that gain to go back to the American people?" "Is that a bad thing? I don't think so." "Would it enrich America? I think so." "Would it make it easier for people to feel like they're participating in all of these incredible gains? I also think so." "My prediction is that this becomes more of a template for the future." "It'll be more about creating incentives and allocating those incentives for a share of the upside." "And I think that there is a really strong economic argument for America to do that." **Fast forward 10 days** Today, President Donald J. Trump, alongside Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Commerce Secretary Nominee Howard Lutnick, announced plans for a US Sovereign Wealth Fund! Trump: " We're going to have a sovereign wealth fund, which we've never had." Lutnick: "The extraordinary size and scale of the US government and the business it does with companies should create value for American citizens." Trump: "And as an example, TikTok, we're going to be doing something perhaps with TikTok, and perhaps not." "And we might put that in the sovereign wealth fund."
