Answer;

They became rich by building monopolies

Explanation;

-America's tycoons in the 19th and early 20th centuries, nicknamed as "robber barons," built massive empires and accumulated unprecedented wealth.

-Many of these men gained their vast fortunes either at the expense of their factory workers or by methods that were considered unscrupulous even back then, a time when insider trading wasn't yet outlawed.

-However, some of them also gave away their fortunes to build universities, hospitals, libraries, and museums that still dot America today.

In your opinion, is taking the law into one's own hands
Svet_ta [14]
The simple answer to your complex question is NO. This is assuming that you live in a country where there are good laws (remember that history is full of bad governments that implemented bad laws) and that law enforcement is effective. Simplisticly, you should only ask yourself this question when your or your families life is being threatened and law enforcement is not around. Your response must still be within the constraints of your laws or you will find yourself in hot water. I'm not even going to try to discuss the ethics and morals that can apply as the situation can vary immensely. Keep it simple - don't operate outside the law, rather fight against unjust laws.

Coughlin, Lindbergh and Ford (How did they react to Hitler and his ideas?)
sladkih [1.3K]

All three were Anti Semitic. Ford was especially firm in his beliefs. He forced his dealerships to give out pamphlets that denounced Jews in ways that are not to be believed. Oddly enough it didn't keep people from buying Fords. By and large, antisemitism was an accepted opinion in the 1920s and 1930s

Although Ford recanted his beliefs, Lindbergh never did. He hated all that were not Aryan. He is better classified as white supremacist.

Charles Conklin was a Roman Catholic priest who was one of the first to use the radio as a communication device. His political views were not appreciated by Roosevelt and others who felt he should be commenting only on religion. He was banned after Pearl Harbor.
