And shit for Seamus

And shit for Seamus
Oh those industrious hard-workin' scions of the American Dream.

Mitt Romney's five sons -- Matt, Tagg, Craig, Ben and Josh -- are sitting pretty with a trust fund worth $100 million. Getting there took investments that produced great growth, according to the Romney campaign. It also took smart tax strategies... "You've got people who are paid $1 million a year to work 3,000 hours just to figure out ways to transfer money from older generations to younger generations, and Romney has the money to hire the best of the best," said Bergman.

But I'm sure the kids will tell you they WORKED for that money. But the best part of this story is the first comment:
