约翰·D·洛克菲勒①是个世界性的人物，对他的评价一直来聚讼纷坛，莫衷一是。19世纪末和本世纪初，他是许多美国人鞭挞和求救的中心人物一方面，他被称为“强盗贵族”，参议员罗伯特·拉福莱特骂他为当代“最大的罪犯”，西奥多·罗斯福总统称他一类的人是“罪恶的大富豪”。 John D. Rockefeller, a cosmopolitan character, has always had a mixed opinion on his evaluation. He was the central figure in the late 19th and early 20th centuries for many Americans to flog and seek help. On the one hand, he was called a “bandit aristocrat” and Senator Robert Lafayette called him “the greatest criminal of the day,” Theodore President Roosevelt called him a “sinful tycoon.”
