he invetned the steel industury -- Actually he was the "main guy" in the oil industry. Carnegie was steel. I would say he is a Robber Baron because he started a monopoly and basically told other oil companies that they would either have to sign a trust (which basically allows him to take over their business and give a small dividend to the trustee) or he would run them out of business. --

John D. Rockefeller Sr. is often viewed as both a robber baron and a captain of industry. As the co-founder of Standard Oil, he was instrumental in revolutionizing the petroleum industry and significantly contributing to the U.S. economy, showcasing his role as a captain of industry. However, his aggressive business practices, including monopolistic tactics and ruthless competition, led many to label him a robber baron. This duality reflects the complex legacy of his impact on American business and society.
