Theodore Roosevelt is famous for many things, but we tend to focus more on his foreign policy and his establishment of the natural parks. Not this series. We're going to take a look at how Teddy smashed up one of the biggest trusts America had ever seen: Standard Oil. But first, we have to lay out the groundwork. Who was John D Rockerfeller? What did Standard Oil do exactly that was so bad? And how did Ida Tarbell crack the story of a century?

    I can picture Teddy Roosevelt holding a miniature Earth in his hand, shaking his head: "No, no, this will simply not do at all!"

    Darn, I was actually writing a script to cover the wall street bombings and the labor wars the in United States. I had a discussion with someone about labor laws, and I had to explain to them why there were so many. It reached a point where the US military bombed the US. (Blair mountain)

    You know when you're well versed in this period of history, it's not hard to see the same things The Robber Barons did are what Big Tech is doing now. They just learned from the RBs mistakes.
