And you can't divide all of it, because it means destroying capitalism, taking the bottom out of society. Only a small fraction of capital stock can possibly be distributed this way.
I should not have assumed dividends were of total stock - that's nonsense. But even so stock market is not total wealth - far more wealth is in real estate for example.
First there is no destroying of society, I am assuming a different distribution of the dividends - assume something like the Norway Sovereign fund(s).
And while this is very back of the envelope I am assuming money goes to children (broad assumption that every household is two adults and two kids).
But let's look at say GDP distribution - that's 5.5 trn - which divided by 300 m people is 18k each.
I am just arguing against the idea that there is not enough wealth or money around, so we cannot share it.
There is enough. How we share it is politics.
And it's always worth nothing that history shows if you don't share for long enough, people take it away from you.
Something fishy about your math here.
$272k per adult is $544k per family. If you paid it over one year that's $45k per month.
Edit: oh, I see, you are only giving people the interest on the capital and assuming a growth rate of ~2%. Both of which seem quite silly to me, but whatever.
And then the big question is: how is this society different from Soviet Union? Literally, i am not exaggerating: an economy where capital is, by law, owned only by the government, and private ownership of means of production is a felony (or how else you will take all capital away)? Or if you want to literally give shares to individuals, not to some immense state fund which will do the redistribution job, what will prevent these people from drinking and gambling these shares away? If American rich will be robbed off all their money so they won't be able to buy, to the Chinese rich (they will be able to afford as people will be running to sell off - if they were attracted by 2.3% returns they'd be buying stock now as it is, only reason why they don't is that they don't see it as attractive - so they WILL sell - and stock will be dirt cheap)
It all sounds like a way to kill capitalism, or sell it off to foreigners...
If it was paid out, you would lose your job.
