I don't know, wouldn't shifting the notes whatever they are from an account controlled by the Govt to individual accounts be essentially the same system as today? If the Govt put real assets into the accounts, I'd be all for it, but not paper moved from one box to another box. If the paper in the individual accounts actually put the holder on the same footing as somebody holding treasury bonds in the event of a default yes, I see you're point. I think thats what you are saying. The TIPS would put the owner on the same footing as other lenders to the Feds.
