No, what we would have is a payoff to Bush's wall street contributors.

Today, if you die the day after you retire, your family gets an
insignificant death benefit.

With the Bush plan, your family gets EVERY PENNY YOU CONTRIBUTED to your
private plan.

That's the way SS is SUPPOSED to work. It is not life insurance, it is
retirement for the worker. When a retiree dies just after retiring it
balances out the retiree who collects benefits til he is 100 years old.
That's exactly how it is supposed to work.
