Young bhtigerfan after cutting the grass: "Dad, why don't I get paid to cut the grass?"

bhtigerfan's dad: "Did you eat breakfast and lunch today?"

bhtigerfan (with confused look): "Yes sir."

bhtigerfan's dad: "Well there's your payment. Now shut up so I can watch the news."

Dads have a tendency to look at things that way.

Well, at least the ones who are worth a shite do, anyway.

Any proof to that? Here's a couple links that refute your unsupported reply.

The last president who ever owned slaves was, ironically, Ulysses S. Grant, elected in 1868 after he had commanded Union forces to victory over the Confederacy in the war that led to the abolition of slavery. Grant owned a slave named William Jones, whom he freed in 1859. Between 1854 and 1859 Grant worked and lived on an 850-acre farm in Missouri, near St. Louis, that was owned by his father-in-law. Grant’s wife, Julia, also owned slaves, and during Grant’s management of the farm he worked along with one of them, a man named Dan.

Or is you argument that he only owned one the rest that worked on his farm just belonged to his wife and her father? Surely you don't give someone a pass because they only owned one slave, do you?
