A person with business ties can do a good job

[Weisbergkevin]

John F. Kennedy's father Joseph was a wealthy business-man who was named by FDR to crack down against Wall Street big-shots and now Joe Kennedy is considered a very good head of the SEC chairman. The steel industry and chamber of commerce his son. Looks like Joe raised him well.

Today the President is criticized for naming a person with a past of links to bankers; but is he tied to that past? Why wasn't Joe compelled to forever favor his former buddies?

1. FDR used Joe Kennedy to crack down on the wall streets big shots

because Joe knew all the things that could be used to make the big bucks by side stepping rules and regulations that did exist. Knew how to change them to make them effective.
