How many of you are aware of the origin of Bush's family fortune? Do you realize that Bush's grandfather, Prescott Bush's company/assets was seized because of financial dealing/funding of the Nazi party...while we were at war with them. On October 20, 1942, under authority of the Trading with the Enemy Act, the U.S. Congress seized UBC and liquidated its assets after the war. The seizure is confirmed by Vesting Order No. 248 in the U.S. Office of the Alien Property Custodian and signed by U.S. Alien Property Custodian Leo T. Crowley. The assets were held by the government for the duration of the war, then returned afterward For it, he was reimbursed $1,500,000. These assets were later used to launch Bush family investments in the Texas energy industry. What do you think about this?
