Living in a city whose streets are heavily populated with sidewalk tents and their inhabitants  I can say that I'm really attracted to the idea of "investment" into 'stock', people stock;  government, corporate, individual investment made into formal education, job training, skill building, It's not from a sense that people are 'owed' or 'deserving of charity' or that we should give them things and services because we feel sorry for them; it's that building up the physical, emotional, intellectual, psychological 'stock' of people is a good investment. It's often mentioned how quickly children grow up. I'm 71 and I can tell you it's true. from birth to emancipation is little more than a decade and a half. Imagine how quickly our society would change if we focused the time, energy and, yes, the money on establishing a fundament for young people. The dividends to society from this investment into 'stock' would be immeasurable.
