Made me smile too. Ofcourse nobody dared to call the robber barons that, even though they were "evil whelps" on a whole different level than a bunch of Italian hoodlums on the streets of Manhattan.

But great title nevertheless. I can't imagine the editor didn't feel the slightest amount of humor when he came up with that. [emoji57]
