How did Rockefeller use trusts to increase his economic power?
John D. Rockefeller used trusts to consolidate and control the oil industry by creating the Standard Oil Trust in the 1880s.

By centralizing management and resources, Rockefeller maximized efficiency and profitability, solidifying his dominance in the industry and significantly increasing his economic power. This strategy ultimately led to widespread criticism and regulatory scrutiny, culminating in the breakup of Standard Oil in 1911.
