A Trump administration official is touting the recently launched Trump Accounts as a means to boost young Americans’ financial literacy and appreciation for capitalism by giving them experience that draws them away from “poisonous ideologies” such as socialism.
Comptroller of the Currency Jonathan Gould spoke at a planning meeting for the Financial Literacy and Education Commission on Tuesday and said in remarks reviewed exclusively by FOX Business that Trump Accounts can help Americans understand how the financial system and markets work, showing the benefits of capitalism.
“When Americans understand how our financial system works, they are better equipped to save for the future, protect themselves from fraud, and fully participate in the greatest economy in the world,” he said. “For Americans to believe in capitalism, they need the opportunity to participate in it.”
“If financial illiteracy leads to socialism and other poisonous ideologies proliferating on college campuses and in certain cities, Trump Accounts can be the antidote, minting a generation of capitalists who believe in America, build wealth, invest in their communities, and own a share in our nation’s economic success,” Gould added.
