Regarding MeeknMing's Ted Kennedy "Tax the Rich" cartoon.....

The Kennedys are very wealthy as a result of the trust funds that Joseph P. Kennedy set up for his children with the money that he made as a robber baron.

Does anyone happen to know how and even if that money is now taxed?

Old Joe wasn't a robber baron, he made his money bootlegging during Prohibition! Then he used some of that money to buy into Hollywood and film production!
