    I’m still not understanding your position. If you have an investment firm that offers brokerage funds and IRAs, is the IRA any more scheme-y than the brokerage fund? Or do you take issue with the idea of mutual funds as a whole?

      The difference is that normal stock market gambling is not sold as a “safe” retirement fund and given tax incentives that should be better put into things that are not so inherently exploitative and insecure.
