Reply #25: I Will defend some of the uber rich - I know 2 of them.

[alittlelark]

Both went to Stanford. One was the child of poor parents, one was raised w/in wealth. The child of the poor parents (hubbys colege roomate) is super uber mega wealthy (over 1B). He has bought his parents 3-4 homes, collects cars, and had a plane feuled and loaded to land in New Orleans after the Katrina disaster hit. He always had been able to get what he wants.... His pilot could not get clearance to land anywhere w/in 100 miles. the Katrina disaster turned him against b*sh, against his best interests.


The child of the wealthy is still teetering - socially he is as liberal as they get.... but he loves his $$$$$$$$. He espouses his hatred of b*sh, yet still teeters on the brink of fascism (good for his $$$).


Both are relatively New $$$$.


New $$$ is our only hope - old incestous $$$$ STINKS.
