Choosing What Social Security Is Invested In
Every month workers in America pay the social security administration to invest money and save that money for the future. Why does this organization get to choose how we invest our money? Ladies and gentlemen the times have changed, we must have the freedom to decide who our money is invested by, and how our hard-earned money is invested.
BETTER RETURNS
In 2019 the average amount of interest made from Social Security was 2.219%. This number is so low that if you were to put your money in a safe dividend stock you would make more money than Social Security pays on the dividend alone. There would also be better returns for the family because if someone were to die the family could collect the remaining social security balance from the private companies.
BOOSTED ECONOMY
There are nearly 3 trillion dollars in social security funds right now. If nearly 3 trillion dollars were put into a cocktail of real estate, cryptocurrency, stocks, and government bonds the U.S would thrive off of the economic value. There would also be options for more jobs to be made due to the demand for a private company to invest all of this money.
REDIRECT GOVERNMENT ISSUES
If Social Security were to be privatized the government would not have to spend time focusing on issues with Social Security. This allows lawmakers to spend more time on very primitive issues that affect our society.
