How would privatization schemes avoid undue government influence of private markets?
This question assumes that the form of “privatization” would have the government invest a portion of Social Security reserves in the private market. The government currently performs a similar role for the retirement plan for federal employees. There is a board that oversees all investment decisions, and the law limits the investments to broad indexes where the investments are spread out over a variety of private enterprises. This type of arrangement could also be set up for Social Security.
