Not even close to Heaven!

You really like cheese.

I think they did feel inferior, hence the rush to traffic their daughters over to penniless English aristocrats as "dollar princesses", just so they could essentially buy a title for their family. It was really quite pathetic, as was a lot of the other things they did, like massacring workers.

They were the same!

It provided needed jobs. That’s a good thing. And ANYONE that wants to be rich in this country - there’s nothing stopping you.

Most everything is built on the backs of "working "people. That's an ignorant comment. Sounds as though you are envious, jealous. Not everyone is or strives so hard to be well to do. Not everyone can, nor ever will.

He probably in charge of Hell now

Well he was assassinated reportedly causing anti U ion sentiment as a result

Total agree. The people that have this kind of complain just ignore the history and the foundation of our today world. Just fools !

Nancy. Hit that dead on! I agree.

The people we should actually thank for all that building of America is the. workers he had shot, they did the actual work, this fat ass piece of shit just separated them from the suits of their labour, and then massacred them. Some hero you have, you must be fun at parties. Remember, the degenerate rich human sacks of trash at the heads of these companies don't get their hands dirty or do any actual work, it's the people below them that make 5000% less in wages that actual make anything possible. Without workers Frick would be a nobody, he's a useless cow pat and for what he did to those people, he's probably burning in hell as we speak.

🤣🤣🤣 and tell us how you feel about slavery

You can have all the money and be spiritually bankrupt!

Did you mean Andrew Carnegie?

You claim that because of these 2 men Capitalism is bad. Any idea how stupid you sound? I love how you libs criticize Capitalism but you never leave to go to socialist or communist places. Capitalism has given us an unprecedented standard of living. The only downside of Capitalism is it generates a generation of ungrateful and spoiled losers too stupid to know and appreciate its great benefits and accomplishments. Good grief.

Actually, that's not quite accurate. Frick started a coke business, upon which Carnegies steel company was dependent. Carnegie bought him out and kept him on as a manager (lack of empathy aside, he was an able executive).

Becoming more obvious by the day it seems.

I agree with you, but note that many of them left libraries, foundations, universities and great art collections.

@@ianboard544 They did toss a few crumbs to the ignorant oppressed after they built their palaces with blood money. Wonder if that allowed them to sleep at night.

Orchestrion. It was a self playing organ

I was in Pittsburgh recently but didn't see this home.What part of the city is it in?

Point Breeze which is not far from Oakland.

Yes, Point Breeze. Right on Penn Ave.

Point Breeze is right next to Wilkinsburg and Homewood and East liberty.

Exactly!!...I wonder if they mention the Johnstown Flood when they give tours of this home!

No really. President Rutherford B. Hayes had a similar-sized house in Ohio, with as much furniture and furnishings preserved.

Back when there were unions, in the 40s/50s/60s, there were living wages and the buying power of a dollar, even adjusting for inflation, was a lot higher then than it was today. What my dad could buy with a dollar compared to what I can buy, was a lot more. Now wages are way behind cost of living and buying power is at an all-time low in most developed western countries. Yeah, unions sure are awful though, hope we don't bring them back, wouldn't want people to be fairly compensated and be able to afford basic needs like food and shelter on one job. Really, it's for the best that people en masse are deciding not to have kids because it's too expensive even with two professional salaries. There are too many people on this planet anyway, you know?

I forgot about that!! Frick was ruthless!! Let's celebrate a home that was paid for with blood. As a historian and somebody who tours these types of places, I'm always interested in the servants quarters or the slave quarters. That type of thing... The Biltmore Estate is laughable too! Yes, I have toured that pile too! Again, I was more interested in the servant quarters! Now, Monticello? That is a beautiful home/ estate!! But again, I was interested in the slave quarters! I do have a soft spot for Thomas Jefferson! Who knows? He might have married Sally Hemmings had he lived in the 21st century? Then again, he promised his wife he would never marry again. So he probably would have had a committed relationship with Sally, had his children w her and not have gotten remarried? We will never know? Frick is a prick!
