Well, by all means lets discuss pertinent

You're leaving out some pertinent additional info.
Bush's individual net worth doesn't tell the whole story. That can be deparmentalized and pared down at will to appear rather modest as movers and shakers go. But remember, he is one unit in a family dynasty that includes connections to Saudi royal fortunes and the global military industrial cartel by way of black-op daddy Bush and the infamous Carlyle Group, not to mention the money line on his blue blood mother's side. If the shrub needed 600 million for a sure-fire venture do you think he'd have any trouble coming up with the cash? I think not. It'd be there for him. It always has been before. So it's deceptive to simply point at his tax return - that's what the public is dutifully allowed to see. He's got a nearly limitless financial backing at his disposal, simply by looking at the fact of who he's related to and who they do business with. This is true of many of the ultra-wealthy and particularly ultra-powerful families who consider themselves nation-shapers, and he is definitely a member of one of them. Modest wealth, this is not.
