    Robber Barons was the negative term for the titans of industry or, as Professor Donald Miller calls them, the capitalist conquistadors. These were the guys like Andrew Carnegie, Cornelius Vanderbilt, Gustavus Swift, Philip Armour, John D. Rockefeller and others who rose to the top and ran monopolies or near-monopolies in the Gilded Age (1870s-1900ish). They were seen as bad because they employed ruthless methods to run competion out of the market, but on the other hand, weren't breaking any laws or rules in this laissez faire timeperiod. These guys also gave a lot of money away: Carnegie built tons of libraries, and Carnegie Mellon University got a lot from him,…

    During the latter part of the nineteenth century, industries began to bloom across the United States. Local businesses and merchants gave way to larger corporations and industries. The head of these industries, such as the names of Rockefeller, Carnegie, and J.P. Morgan, were looked upon as robber barons by some, industrial innovators by others. A baron is "one having great wealth, power, and influence in a specified sphere of activity: an oil baron." Therefore the robber barons that these men were looked upon as were "one of the American industrial or financial magnates of the late 19th century who became wealthy by unethical means, such as questionable stock-market operations…

    The late 19th century industrial leaders have often been called "industrial statesmen" for the great economic power they brought to America. However, they have also been called "robber barons” since they built this great wealth by abusing the system, their employees, and destroying their competitors. These kings of industry displayed characteristics of both industrial statesmen and robber barons. But which would better describe them? They had their faults, but overall these leaders should be respected for all they have done.…

    I thought that people like Andrew Carnegie, John D. Rockefeller, and J.p Morgan were all robber barons. Because they would employ people and put them in these unsafe, and unsanitary conditions. Also they made education for immigrants coming in difficult because even though they built libraries and hospitals would the immigrants would be illiterate and not be able to pay for hospital bills. Lastly theses men were robber barons because they were using vertical integration and horizontal integration to take over small businesses and to raise prices on railroads.…

    I am your typical pseudo intellectual liberal, but don’t get me wrong pop culture does not turn me off. Mention the Kardashians and I won’t run away in disgust, roll my eyes, or give you the side eye. My google searches range from ‘Is twerking a good exercise?’ to ‘What is Putin’s economic/political interest in Syria?’. I don’t find Woody Allen films boring and I don’t think Sharknado is trash. I will argue with any film snob about why the entire Shrek series is more profound than de Sica’s The Bicycle Thief. As you can see I am all over the place as far as my interests, but the most is race. This topic turns off many people and perhaps you’ll read many personal statements about the struggle of being a minority in America, but my story is not that of roadblocks and discrimination but that of enlightenment. Like many of my fellow white passing Hispanics I have used my light complexion to shield myself from racism and my culture.…

    There are two key elements that are common to all charges of kidnapping. One is the removal or detention must be unlawful. The second one is that there has to be some aggravating circumstance must accompany the restraint or asportation (Lippman, 2010). The mens rea of kidnapping is thought to be intent to move or to confine the victim without his or her consent. The essence of kidnapping is the actus reus of the forcible movement of a person from one place to another. The central issue is the extent of the movement required. The traditional rule in American law is that any movement, no matter how limited, is sufficient. Kidnapping is a crime against a person because it is the unlawful and nonconsensual abduction of an individual.…
