Hard Work or Luck: the 17 Billon Dollar Question
We liberals have always suspected that the rich just luck into their wealth, but now we have proof due to the divorce proceedings of billionaire Harold Hamm, as reported here by NBCNews. Seems that if he can prove his money is just the result of luck, his wife gets zilch; if it's the result of his skill and effort, she gets a share. So he's instructed his lawyers to say he was a lucky SOB, just like all of the rich. So Texans may "remember the Alamo" but liberals will say "remember the Hamm".
