Vilifying the rich has become a popular sport these days, much as in the early part of the last century. Indiscriminate and divisive, it can take down the mightiest of men, men like Norman B. Ream (1844-1915) who contributed greatly to the industrial structure and economic growth of his country. But he was forgotten by his fellow countrymen because of what they perceived to be a personal flaw: He was rich!
