The fundamental and dubious assumption is that the market will behave no differently after such a plan is enacted.

Of course, any action has a RE-action. What are some of the ways you can think of that the dynamics of the market would be changed, for the better, or for the worse in light of the proposed privatization idea?

Don't think anyone is assuming that. We can look to Chile and Great Britain to see what happens when privatization occurs. 60% have opted partially out in England and the capital unleashed and now at work is greater than the country's GNP. Chile is one of South America's success stories and much of that is due to investments in Chilean companies by Chilean worker's pension plans.
