And there you see the uninformed mindset of a boy raised rich. Like his 
father before him, who once admitted he had never gone through a checkout 
line, this president is unconnected to common people, most of whom live 
from paycheck to paycheck because they don't know any better. There is a 
generational transport of the paycheck mentality and unless Bush has a 
personal finance crash program to change that mindset, most of those now 
paying into the sound SS system would need a financial advisor to invest in 
Wall Street. And that would cost a lot more than the SS trustees cost.
