    Yeah they’ll sit around and say stupid shit like it has any meaning. The rich have been riding their parents coattails forever. I don’t like it either but it’s not exactly earth-shattering news.

    Don’t like it? Eat the rich.

      And untalented nepo babies getting to do things that no one who was not in their position would be able to do at their skill level is also really common. See Tom Hanks’ son and Will Smith’s kids.

        Exactly, if we’re being honest it’s half the reason (the more honest) people who do work hard and accumulate wealth do it in the first place. So that their kids/grand kids can have better lives. I’m not saying that I think nepotism is a good thing, but that on our list of issues to worry about it’s not very high.

        I think it’s hilarious that after years and years of digging the best they found was that a born-rich-ruling-class, already-a-hedge-fund manager got a cushy job at a natural gas company.

        It’s so blatantly obvious the GOPs attack on him is all tied to Russias interest in Ukraine.
