“Every dollar that's going into the sovereign wealth fund ideas, or if they come to fruition, or in my opinion, and obviously I haven't spoken about this, but the crypto fund and all this other sort of stuff. Every dollar of that should go into the Social Security Trust Fund, and that Social Security Trust Fund should be for the benefit of all Americans, and it should be equities, it should be ownership, it should be participation in what the American dream enabled us all to succeed, and it should enable everyone else to participate in shares and equity in American enterprise that can come to market.”
