how to help the average american to take interest in the financial markets

certainly, the goblin thanked the poster for pointing out the plight of the american economy of late, but either way, the goblin's mind, or whatever little remained of it that is, was musing on the idea that somehow those federal financial institutions could solve much of that accusation, that the market is somehow out of touch, or insensitive, or even irrelevant to mr joe average, if they were to entice the average american here to participate in the stock exchange more, by for example, creating some special issue treasury bonds that convert upon their maturity straight into foodstamps, "...yes, these so called foodstamp bonds could be traded freely on the open market, so that the one in ten americans receiving foodstamps at the moment would be able to keep track of their investment in the US economy so to speak..." ventured the goblin, somehow aware that without some sort of intervention soon, his much needed supply of american peanut butter could well be in serious jeopardy, perish the thought
