🔑 Invest America Initiative

Core Idea: Automatically create an investment account for every newborn in the U.S., seeded with $1,000 from the government.
Contribution Cap: Up to $5,000 per year can be added to the account in a tax-advantaged way by family, friends, employers, or philanthropists.
Investment Strategy: Funds would be invested in broad market instruments like ETFs or mutual funds tied to the S&P 500.
Goal: To promote financial literacy, economic mobility, and long-term wealth accumulation for all children, regardless of socioeconomic background.

🧠 Key Arguments in Favor

Compound Growth: Starting at birth allows for decades of compounding, potentially resulting in hundreds of thousands of dollars by adulthood.
Capitalist Mindset: Encourages children to become stakeholders in the economy, fostering a pro-capitalist outlook.
Bipartisan Appeal: Though led by Republicans, the initiative has conceptual overlap with Democratic proposals like Cory Booker's "baby bonds."
Private Sector Support: Backed by major CEOs and companies, with commitments to contribute to employee children's accounts.
Philanthropic Potential: Wealthy individuals and foundations could match or supplement contributions, especially for low-income families.
