[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of this (not cancer and disease, but some of the rest of of it) has to do with seeking thrills. You don't run for president if you don't want thrills and risk because a lot of people will hate you. You don't pilot a private plane in a storm with minimal training if you aren't an overconfident thrill-seeker. [/quote] This. Obv poor Tatiana's cancer was random and not a result of her behavior. But a lot of the Kennedy deaths and tragedies are a result of a combo of access to wealth and no risk aversion genes. -JFK Jr Flying a plane: most of us can't afford that / many of us would not risk that -Kick Kennedy: flying around Europe during the early days of aviation - most would not have had that opportunity - and her rich partner pressured the pilot to fly despite bad weather - many would have looked at the weather and not gotten on the place or adhered to the pilot's initial warning not to fly -Rosemary's lobotomy - that was a new procedure and they had VIP access to it -Joe Jr's war place crash - he did not have to take that suicidal assignment -THe Kennedy who died on the slopes Playing football on skis - most people can't afford to ski - and the ski patrol probably would have made them stop if they weren't Kennedys - and most people are not only too risk averse to play football on skis but also too risk averse to ski -All the tragedies befalling the women connected with them - the women were drawn to them partially due to their money and power -etc[/quote] Is this somehow supposed to affect how sympathetic people are allowed or should feel for Caroline?
