Yeah they did some sick earthbending.

Rockefeller was a dick
Christopher Sanchez
Shit load of people from different creeds, colours and political views did it.
I'd wish that some people would stop demoninsing white people though and holding them all accountable for horrible shit done over 200 years ago. It was a different time and people didn't know better.

Jews are who built america, whites were just good goy slaves
Chase Phillips

Cooper Scott

back when anti-Semitic actually meant something

Whiter than """white""" Americans.

They definitely put America on the way to becoming a superpower, but even the Great Man theory had its limits. Personally I'd say the remains of English Bureaucracy is what made it so great.

they built a little at the start of their careers, though later in their career some were guilty of crony capitalism which may have held back development

>At first the five-day workweek was common in only three industries: the needle trade, building construction, and printing and publishing. In a few isolated cases employers voluntarily adopted the five-day week.
>The earliest and most notable of these was, curiously enough, Henry Ford, a staunch anti-unionist. In 1914 Ford reduced the daily hours in his plant from nine to eight; in 1926 he announced that henceforth his factories would also be closed all day Saturday.
>His rationale was that an increase in leisure time would support an increase in consumer spending, not least on automobiles and automobile travel. This was a prescient view, for the weekend did indeed become associated with outings and pleasure trips. But in 1926 that was still in the future, and Ford was alone among businessmen in espousing the weekend. He was roundly criticized by U.S. Steel, Westinghouse, and the National Association of Manufacturers.

Sad and funny, one can build a great enterprise that brings new jobs, but then looking for a quick buck he crashes the market, or creates a monopoly.

What the fuck does it mean to build America?
Josiah Evans
the proletariat built America

Wouldn't this have literally been anti-union because then the workers would've been paid less?
Jacob Harris
the proletariat could have just as easily built pyramids, the proletariat are stupid and need bourgeois capitalists to instruct them
