Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mustard" data-source="post: 339989" data-attributes="member: 46">J.R. Ewing was about profits and power for Ewing Oil, with himself as president. Revenge was merely something that he would do to those who had wronged him before, if it made business sense to do so, like Vaughn Leland losing big on the Asian oil leases that were nationalized, not long after Leland had leaned on J.R. to put up Southfork as collateral for loans for those Asian oil leases and later refusing extensions for debt repayments.There might be an exception with Cliff Barnes. That was personal as well, even though J.R. knew that Cliff wouldn't let up attacking the Ewings if in a position of power, so J.R.'s opposition to Cliff was still business in that sense.</blockquote>
