MAGA Accounts: Conservative Baby Bonds

Updated: 2025.08.08 2M ago 1 sources
A MAGA‑led Congress created 'Money Accounts for Growth and Advancement' with a $1,000 government seed for every citizen child under eight, with tax‑favored investment income. This adopts a 'universal basic capital' approach—building assets at the bottom rather than only redistributing income. It signals a right‑populist path to counter r > g by broadening ownership of appreciating assets. — It suggests a coalition realignment where conservatives address inequality through pre‑distribution and asset ownership, reshaping welfare and capital policy in the AI era.
