just how stupid are people?!
From Boston.com :

WHA?!?!!? I guess that people really don't listen to any news at all or read any newspapers or really give a damn about what happens to them! Does anyone really think that they can invest in the stock market and NOT lose money when the market drops?!?! This doesn't even address the fact that their benefits will be reduced just by electing to invest! Yet people APPROVE of bush still?!?!? Literally beyond comprehension!!
A poll for the Concord Monitor published last weekend showed 55 percent support for allowing workers to invest a portion of their Social Security taxes in stocks and bonds, as Bush proposes. But support dropped to 19 percent when those in favor were asked if they would back the plan if it meant losing benefits when the stock market dropped.
In a University of New Hampshire poll released Monday, 54 percent called such investments -- a centerpiece of Bush's plan -- a bad idea.
The same poll found more residents approving of Bush's performance than disapproving, however.
