Yeah, some rich guy lies & should be investigated, but what is even more outrageous and disgusting is the Wall Street derivative schemers - trillions of dollars in losses to investors - the exact amount will never be known. They go unpunished and get rewarded with a big bail-out with our money.

It sounds like Al III and his wife are getting exactly what they have coming. This guys sounds like he should be crowned king of the ingrates. Not only has he, and his beauty queen wife, not worked for 1 day in their lives for any of this money, but they have the nerve to take advances and still complain. When your only occupation is holding out your hand and saying “gimme”, its pretty safe to assume that any moral compass would be nonexistent. So it shouldn’t really surprise anyone that they lied on these documents.

Fraud worked so well for his ancestors why would he think otherwise? The American Dream has been replaced with the American Ponzi Scheme. It's the only social mobility left.. If you don't get caught, and the republicans are doing their best to make the unethical legal every day!

They were part of the top 2% that got their tax break. They will be ok now.

Without that tax break they might have had to cut back a little.

When will the other 98% wake up?

If you are rich, your family is eccentric. Only us average folk are dysfunctional.
