I highly recommend it.

Yeah, I've read all about this &quot;democratic socialism.&quot; and it's bunk. It's fascism with penalty for success. No thanks.

Look into heavy equipment builder R.G. LeTouneau. He was a very rich man and a man of exceptional morals, as was Eddie Rickenbaker the World War I ace and airline executive.

Why not read the book before criticizing it?

I dunno about that....

but one thing you should consider...a lot of times Ethical people aren't as greedy as unethical people.

So the unethical people try harder to accumulate wealth.
Where as the ethical people have better things to do with their time, they get to a point where they have enough money to live their life how they want to, and then worry about more important things.

<< In my life I've known a handful of multi-millionaires. To the man, every one of them were the most generous and compassionate people you'd ever meet. They also were possesed of the strictest ethic and moral code, and all were self made. >>



Would you care to name these people, and say how they made their wealth?
