You're factually wrong, Captain, and you aren't going to be very popular at this forum.

As I understand it, W went into the oil drilling business, drove dry wells, but was bought out for a bundle anyway. Then he went into the baseball business, headed a consortium that used the power of eminent domain to condemn land for a stadium, and then used city tax revenues to build the stadium for his team. And made a bundle. The family name and connections had nothing to do with this?
