I was unaware that he was a racist and an anti-semite. If this is true then I hate Edison. He was a pig. F&*k him and whatever inventions he stole from others. Doing some research I learned that many of his inventions, including the lightbulb, were not unique or primary.

Edison was a manager who managed great inventors. He took the credit and patents and they got a dime or two.

Him and Henry Ford were highly racist and anti-semitic.

Edison would've stolen his mother's last dollar, probably. He had no compunctions whatsoever about stealing creative ideas or works or f'ing over his technical staff.

Sounds like he was part of the establishment. booo Hisss on Edison.

Yeah, but, in a grudging way he was miles and miles ahead of our captians of industry today. He actually MADE things, things that enhanced people's lives, and things that employed people making them. Also things that were exported and helped the balance of payments. Same for Mr. Ford, Harvey Firestone, Andrew Carnegie, Rockefeller and all them other so-called robber barons.
