Is Andrew carnegie a robber baron or captain of the industry?
He is both depending how you look at it. He is a robber baron in the sense that he made a lot of money, created a monopoly, bought all the steel companies, and bought all the iron companies and paid his workers very little. But on the other hand he is a captain of the industry because he thought of something so revolutionary and something that changed the world and how things work forever and was a great innovator. He also gave back a lot by making Carnegie Hall in NYC and making many colleges, one being in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. That is ironic since it's the steel city.
