It's pretty cool how Rockefeller monopolized all the oil in the United States. He really knew what he was doing. He would have billions of dollars if he was still alive today.

Well if you look at how much a million dollars was back then I'm pretty sure Rockefeller was a billionare by our standards. I think it's interesting that the Gilded Age really established who the most powerful major companies are and the most influential families in America today.
