Many of us do not agree with this completely, although a builder is in business to sell buildings, just simply because evidence supports the fact that the Morse family have a great deal of pride in what they have created. Wouldn't you if you had built this place?
Very few have met the Morse family in person and all I can see is that they have been a success because of their hard work and good values.
I wonder why some folks feel the need to find only bad things about successful business people. Envy, maybe?
I think that the Morses funding their own urban renewal is way cool, Warren.
I honor them. They are my hero's. Ordinary people coming from the middle of the country, using the skills and values of Midwesterners and searching and finding skills in others they don't have and hiring them, Keeping only the best workers and planners. Not grandstanding their private life. Risking their own money time and time again. Working long after they HAVE to. Keeping thousands employed and all without a drop of federal money. If I had been wise enough I would have liked to do the same thing.
