It would mean recognizing that you can't have an "ownership society" in a nation where too many Americans owe far more than they own.

Americans have demonstrated over the last decade that they don't want an "ownership society" - by and large, they are much more comfortable being owned.

Don't be smug.

Most people AREN'T entrepreneurs and have no wish to be. And that is just plain reality. Most people are security driven and saw Bush's Social Security proposals as adding to the insecurity of their lives. Particularly that well over half of the American workforce that has seen its socioeconomic security eroded by globalization.
