I would put Andrew Carnegie up there before I'd consider a Rockefeller. That being said, I'll add that when one hears news and does analysis on what one reads or hears, one must consider the source. If you dissect the articles and reduce them to actual, reported, fact, you have a good article. The rest is opinion... although the Times opinion is usually better accepted, because it is written better. Prize foundations are an interesting subject. Let us not forget that Alfred Nobel (funder of the Nobel Peace Prize) was an engineer who gave us high explosives... and opened an entirely new world of military possibilities.
