i was watching a video of sen hawley and thought to myself, why not give government a bog standard basic 401k like most of us have. you pick contribution and risk level. thats it, nothing more. also make sure they are only able to use common investment firms everyone else uses, no special boys club senators only firm. make sure everyone else has access to whatever they pick. that is their only option for investment for however long they and their immediate family are in office. if they want to sell off everything and dump it into a specific biotech or weapons company, they can do so 90 days after they leave office, permanently. that information should also be made public by mandate.
at least this way, if there is anything funny going on, the rest of us can join.
