HOW JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER INFLUENCED MODERN MEDICINE
Did you know that oil tycoon and business magnate John D. Rockefeller helped to remove “holistic” and “alternative” plant medicines from the teachings of medical professionals in the United States? That’s right! Most well-known for his career in big oil and the petroleum sector, Rockefeller, at the time of his death, was estimated to be worth 300 to 400 billion dollars making him the “richest man in modern history.” Like many people though of the time, his influence on medicine has had detrimental long-term negative effects on society as a whole.
Another name that may come to mind when it comes to their agenda affecting the health of millions is a man by the name of Harry J. Anslinger, who is primarily responsible for the prohibition’ against cannabis that still holds precedence in federal law in the United States of America. That, however, is an entirely different story. One that, like the story of Rockefeller, was one of private agendas and greed.
FROM OIL TYCOON TO MEDICAL INFLUENCE, ROCKEFELLER WAS IN THE BUSINESS OF MONOPOLIZING
Thanks to various ventures over the years, by the early 1900s, John D. Rockefeller gained control of over 90% of oil refineries in the United States through the Standard Oil Corporation. During the same time period, the science community was fascinated by the potential offered through petrochemicals produced by the petroleum industry, such as the ones that Rockefeller owned.
