I really think though that Joe thought that by being a good american and being of service to the government and the american people that he would be taken care of. I believe that because when he was in the military service he was continuing to spend money like it was still rolling in and even borrowing to continue spending but that is just not true. And it is still not true in today's society.
      Mike Tyson was no hero like Joe Louis, and for all his complaining about being broke he still lives in mansions, drives 100 thousand dollar cars and sh it. Mike will be well taken care of forever, and he was an animal.
