re: #78 Big Steve
ah…Kennedy’s…all inherited money and they seem pretty liberal to me.
That’s why I said “mostly”. The Roosevelts were also children of privilege.
I think, to a degree, it’s that new money peopel have an understanding that all their smarts and hard work wouldn’t have brought success without the infrastructure and government actions that provided the playing field they won on and the refs that made the competition fair. People whose daddy and grandpa earned the money think it came entirely from daddy and grandpa’s magic genetic deservedness that’s obviously theirs now.
