Equality is impossible

[Ricter]

What if you were a woman with no accomplishments other than turning a blind eye while your husband victimized women? What if your plan was to ride his coattails all the way to the White House? Is this someone Ricter would support? Of course it is, Ricter is 'Ready for Hillary'.

Hillary will make a better president than any current republican candidate. Hell, Gumby would make a better president than any current republican candidate.

. . . the Busch family who only owned 4% of Budweiser (Anheuser-Busch) as of 2007. The fourth generation Busch ended up losing the family business to 3G Capital in the 2007 buyout. Busch the 4th was a rich playboy who did not have a great understanding of his business and the professional managers hired had failed to expand abroad, whereas the owners of 3G expanded a tiny brewery into a global powerhouse in 20 years large enough to swallow Budweiser. I have no doubt that succeeding generations of Busch will probably continue down the wealth ladder. Perhaps the 12th generation will be near upper middle class status.

Not sure if there ever was a study, but I do know there is a generally accepted theory that businesses rarely survive a hand down. Maybe folks who build a successful business are too busy doing that to raise kids capable of taking over. Or maybe the ability to run a successful business is both rare and uninherited.

In the book, Myth of the Robber Barrons, a small study of 40 families from 1880 to 1920 showed that 75% of prominent families in Scranton failed to have a line of succession to the next generation. The conclusion is "an inheritance can be trasnferred ... but vision, talent, and drive were hard to transfer from generation to generation."

You're not catching on. 'Ricter is ready for non-republican'.

As if Ricter were ever ready for anything else.

Shrug. Keep in mind the "Gumby would be a better president" came from a 'tard on the rep team. : )
