The “progressive left” labeled the industrialists of the late 19th century; Andrew Carnegie, John D Rockefeller, Henry Ford and Cornelius Vanderbilt, “robber barons”. Men who Obama would describe as not having built what they most certainly did.

Today's “titans” are truly Spy Masters. Secretly tracking, targeting and selling peoples interests on "social media". If AT&T had used Edison's invention to mine their customers information they would have been rightfully regulated and ruined. Instead, the government has subsidized and exploited the technology to manipulate and control the people.
