  1. In the 1870's the fraction of crude oil called "gasoline" was a useless byproduct and the #StandardOil company just dumped it into the river by their refinery. So much gasoline was dumped into the river that sparks from passing steam boats would set the river on fire. (mmm)

    [with the current ‘reworking’ of conflicts related to fossil fuel extraction and supplies, I thought this historic map was somewhat topical, and indicates the ongoing/continued huge reach of the massive oil companies/corporations]

  8. #MichaelAndTeene-15:
    The #StandardOil trial [1908] proved it secured illegal railroad discounts, blocked fuel usage, spied on competitors, & bribed officials.
    Is this what @IMFNews & @IEA may unleash?

  9. #MichaelAndTeene-14:
    Do @IMFNews fuel taxes & "estimates", prove:-
    Negligence (its old estimate damaged the futures trading sector)?
    Misconduct (global #StandardOil-style mergers)?

  10. > ... to remember about the old octopuses, the #SouthernPacific and #StandardOil.. arose in new resource landscapes.. unregulated.. They helped create the obscene economic disparity.. stir up the ire of working people. What followed on the Gilded Age was the age of #progressivism the age that broke up the monopolies, regulated industry, and articulated a fierce vision of economic justice and rights for workers.

    When we speak of Germany's denazification effort, it's as a German program, but of course that's not right. Denazification was initiated, designed and overseen by the war's winners - in West Germany, that was the USA.

    We cannot tell whether their is sarcasm in your voice here but no matter what one thinks of #gab they are #Cloudflare.

    Cloudflare are helping to produce a #civilWar in the US they are supporting #fascists and #antiFascists (aka #antifa) simultaneously, a common tactic for #bankers and #WallStreet. They provide for both sides so no matter who wins they and their #investments are safe.

  14. 2/2 Prof #GabrielRockhill's account is solid. When it comes to a history of #fascism, there's so much material to get through its understandable that you are not able to cover everything in detail.

    For anyone interested the documentary, JFK to 9/11: Rich Man's Trick delves into all the points mentioned in detail. Exposing the actual perpetrators and heroes:
