Amassing wealth beyond your needs is immoral and Unamerican.

Nonsense. Restricting people's freedom to acquire as much wealth as
they want (unless obtained through criminal activity) is immoral and
Unamerican, and reeks of the typical jealousy of success exhibited by
the Communist liberal/"progressive" left.



Family dynasties are Unamerican.

You mean like the Kennedys?

The Kennedy's got their wealth honestly. The Kennedy's inherited
their wealth.
..

The money came from their old man's bootlegging.

That's honest?

They inherited. They never worked for it.

Fortunately they used their fortune for public service.

Yes, like the acquisition of the Merchandise Mart for back taxes.

A true public service, indeed.

It was a maneuvered acquisition. A true public service, yes.
