There was talk of turning social security into private investment vehicles.  (Similar to a 401K)  Lots of problems with that, but the current system isn&#x27;t so great either.<p>What I&#x27;m trying to get at here though isn&#x27;t just turning people into equity investors, but specifically capturing the upside from an environment where robots do all the work and the gains are captured mostly by an oligopoly of their makers.<p>If the robots (or AI) are broadly created and owned, this is much less of a problem.
