Robber baron. He totally didn’t care about any industry but his own. Well, you could argue both obviously.

Both. He took advantage of the lack of laws and innovated far more because of it. Not saying that he was the most ethical of men, many of our laws of today came about because of his abuses, but he knew his business.
