      Yeah, I was gonna say, as an isolated act, this seems good and also moves things a millimeter further from laissez-faire capitalism. Returns on investment could be used to help fund government operations. Having said that, if things keep going the way they have been, returns will more likely be used indirectly to displace some of the tax burden on the ultra wealthy.
