Also, no way did they get it all legally.
There seems to be a lot of “break the law, pay a fine, keep the profits” but maybe that’s just what it feels like
No there’s definitely more to that than a feeling.
The Kennedys made it bootlegging during prohibition. The Drumpfs, now Trumps made it on small cons, upgrading to insurance and realestate fraud. And then there’s Jeffrey Epstein.
The question is not if they made it legally, but if they made it ethically. I’m willing to bet there is not a single billionaire who made their money ethically.
“The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread.” Anatole France in The Red Lily(1894)
Most of them make the laws after they get the power.
