John D. Rockefeller was crucial to American history as the founder of Standard Oil and a pioneer in the oil industry, which played a vital role in the country's economic development. His business practices, including the use of monopolies and vertical integration, significantly shaped the modern corporate landscape. Rockefeller's wealth and influence also led to substantial philanthropic efforts, impacting education and public health. Thus, he made a lasting difference in both the economy and society.
Rockefeller believed that, "Competition is a sin." Yet he was also a philanthropist. Competition is good for a capitalistic society like the US. Competitors lower prices which draws the consumer to them. This doesn't sound like something a philanthropist, someone who loves all people and wants to help them, would say.
