In this country it has been done through SP500 e-mini futures, since circa 2002. The procedure is in place. As far as government ownership being bad for stocks, I agree, but it is not necessarily any worse than ownership by pension funds. Older companies owned by pension funds or the government are run by harvard or other school MBA management interested in stealing from the shareholders (to enrich themselves) more than interested in running it. Private enterprizes will function fine, and so will public companies that are run by the majority stock holders. In other words, I don't see much difference whether the stock is owned by a pension fund or by the government. A notable exception: AAPL. I'm not sure if AAPL is an exception that proves the rule. Steve Jobs did start AAPL, so... while it was run by some Amelio, it sucked. And, AAPL did buy NEXT. Maybe AAPL proves the rule. -ggg-
