I recently watched How Big Oil Conquered the World.

This was the most eye-opening documentary I have ever watched and I highly recommend for you to subscribe to Corbett Report on Youtube to stay informed on the elitist's plans to take over our world!

Today I will highlight how the Rockefeller family started the oil rush and the story behind how Pennsylvania struck oil!

Image

Oil is everywhere

Our lives are run by oil in our modern day, It is impossible to think of an area of our modern day empire which is not controlled or reliant on petrol-chemicals.

We know the public sector information about oil. The war on oil in the Middle-East and how the internal combustion engine revolutionised our transport systems.

What we do not know is talked in depth in Corbett Report's video.

Image

The beginning of oil

It was not crude oil in Pennsylvania, it was snake oil!

Dr Bill Livingstone, a celebrated cancer specialist was the face of the snake oil emergence.

This man was not a doctor or a cancer specialist, Bill Livingstone was not even his real name!

He went on to sell snake oil as a cure for cancer to poor townsfolk.

Image

Snake oil has no cancer curing properties. It was in fact an oil originally created in China before being imported to America during the gold rush.

The original snake oil came from Chinese water snakes and was used in China as a treatment for arthritis, bursitis, and other joint pains. It is believed to have been brought to North America during the Gold Rush in the mid-1800s.

According to The History of Snake Oil

He sold a "Rock Oil Tonic" which was a mixture of laxative and petroleum.

100% guaranteed to cost a lot of money and not cure cancer!

Image

Who Was The Con Artist?

William Avery Rockefeller, aka “Devil Bill,” traveled the country’s back roads conning people into buying his “Rock Oil” tonic for cancer.

Rockefeller? That sounds familiar!

The Rockefeller family is an American industrial, political, and banking family that owns one of the world's largest fortunes. The fortune was initially made in the US petroleum industry during the late 19th and early 20th centuries by John D. Rockefeller and his brother William Rockefeller, primarily through Standard Oil.

Wiki

The family is also known for its long association with, and control of, Chase Manhattan Bank. The Rockefellers are considered to be one of the most powerful families, if not the most powerful family, in the history of the United States.

Image

The Rockefellers have a very good chunk of the world's money. They are definitely in the elitist party (1%) who control most of the fiat currency and banking institutions all over the world.

You could say they have the potential to, and most likely are, using their immense wealth and power to control our politicians and control our world markets.

William Rockefeller continues to deceive

He was dubbed "Livingstone" after raping a girl in Kayuga in 1849.

When he wasn't on the run or scamming someone he would teach his children (from 3 different wives) the trick of his trade.

I cheat my boys every chance I get... I want to make 'em sharp.

Titusville, 1857. An unlikely man arrives from the train, "Colonel” Edwin Drake. He’s from the Pennsylvania Rock Oil Company, and he’s here on a mission: to collect oil!

Just like how Livingstone was William Rockefeller's code name..

Drake isn’t really a Colonel.

He was awarded the title by George Bissell and James Townsend, a lawyer and a banker who started the Pennsylvania Rock Oil Company after they discovered that the naturally occuring Seneca oil could be made into lamp oil or kerosene.

Image

Who is Drake?

He is actually an unemployed railroad conductor who talked himself into a job after staying at the same hotel as Bissel the year before.

Why call him a Colonel?

It is hoped, will help Drake win the respect of the locals.

They did not understand his obsession with Seneca oil...

Other than as a cure-all medicine or grease for the local's sawmill’s machinery, it’s hardly seen as something valuable. In fact, it can be a downright nuisance, contaminating brine wells that supply Pittsburgh’s booming salt industry at the time. (LINK)

Image

Drake Still Had A Mission

To find a way to collect enough oil to make the distillation of Seneca oil into lamp oil profitable.

  • Native Americans had historically collected the oil by damming the creek near a seep and skimming

This was inefficient because Drake could only collect six to ten gallons of oil a day this way.

He Needed A Better System!

By the summer of 1859 Drake is desperate.

Bissell and Townsend are running out of patience and, most importantly, the company is running out of funds. (LINK)

He receives help from “Uncle” Billy Smith, a Pittsburgh blacksmith who had experience drilling brine wells with steam-powered equipment.

They Get To Work

Above pictured is the Seneca oil being drilled from the ground in Pennsylvania.

Near Defeat

By August 27th they’ve drilled down 69 and a half feet.

Drake has used the last of his funds, Bissell and his partners have decided to close up the operation.

But on August 28th, they struck oil.

Image

The first oil was to sell for $40 a barrel.

An Industry Emerges

Overnight a whole new industry was born. Before long in millions of homes, farms and factories around the world, lamps would be lit with kerosene refined from West Pennsylvania crude oil. (LINK)

This was the plan all along, to corner the market because once you strike oil, it is plentiful and easily attained.

It was like a gold rush!

Image

Everyone Wants A Piece Of The Action

The quiet backwoods of Pennsylvania was transformed into the place to be if you wanted to strike oil. Who doesn't want to strike oil?

Prospectors started leasing flats, towns springing up from nowhere and a lot of oil-rigs could be seen in the countryside.

What Does @chron Think?

Watching this documentary has been a must for me as I am very interested in alternative truth.

I have only informed you of how the Rockefeller family started the oil rush and the story behind how Pennsylvania struck oil.

In the next article we will discuss how the Rockefellers teamed with the Rothschilds to (another elitist family) create Standard Oil.

excellent sums-it-all! I have been following corbett for many years now, maybe 10 or so

there is another one on the YT page by corbett: Why Big Oil Conquered The World

Glad you enjoyed @earthcustodians!

I've watched both! They are both amazing.

Hope you keep Truth-Seeking!

Steem on!

I recently completed the How / Why Documentaries too and have been recommending them to everyone I see. Way easier than trying to explain the why the world is they way it is to people off the cuff. Just learn the history and background and it will make since. This one will save you a lot of time and gain you a lot of success.

Thank you @jamesc, I am also recommending the two documentaries to all my friends!

I hope we can all rise out of our oppressive state because truth seekers like Corbett Report are out there!

edit: removed

But now, having the US backed with crude oil (+) almost nothing behind it (with central banks printing a lot of money) , I am wondering how long will this last....

Completely true @littlenewthings!

It won't last long if Cryptos rock up to the party!

Glad you shared your opinion with us 👍

Don't trust the banks, dont trust the rockefellers, that is the best way!

I have heard their names but have not really try find out who they are. And now it gets interesting, because I still believe that there are some people who controlled the world we live in

They are at the top @ekavieka, our world is not what we have been told it is!

Follow my series to unveil the entire truth.

Cough.cough.Ahemmmm..."global".... cough.Cough.... how'd ya know it's a globe?! ;)

Allllll my life there's been H2O2 cars (water!) available for a long time, and electric cars... yet this technology has never been released; proof to me that someone wants us buying oil, and they have no interest in saving the Plane.

....it's not a Plane(t) :P

The only thing that is global right now is your head thinking about the globe 😆

Yes, these technologies are supressed/bought by oil companies to keep the profits all to themselves.

We need a revolution!
