Niteshift, Joe Kennedy Sr. wasn't an industrialist. At one time before the second world war he was Ambassador to Great Britian. He was aginst the war but his sons Joe and John didn't agree with him and Joined up. Joe Sr. made his fortune as a bootlegger. It may be posted on the Net but I can't be sure.
Uh, how are your Taxes down there?
P.S. My father also made it thru the depression with change to spare. So what?
Yes, Big Jim, some people are greedy. Not all of them are rich. While it isn't publised very much, many rich people give away a lot of money.
I watched a story on Fox news about a young college grad that wnated to see if he could make it without revealing that he was educated. With 25 dollars he set out to try it. He did very well indeed. Some people set themselves to fail. And they also usually succeed, to fail, that is.

"Do not endeavor to be the smartest kid in a dumb class. Instead, you are better off being the dumbest kid in the smartest class, where you will be challenged and you will learn. If you aren't growing, you are dying." -Brian Austin Whitney
