Did Rockefeller support prohibition to stop alcohol from being used as fuel?
Bruce asked:
http://suzieqq.wordpress.com/2008/07/23/rockefeller-ford-and-the-secret-history-of-alcohol/ The Web site mentioned above requires the prohibition of Rockefeller support to get rid of alcohol as competition for oil. This is a theory of conspiracy, or is there some truth to it? I 'm seeking responses from people with a background in history. A certain quick search of Google reveals that Rockefeller was a devout Baptist and he himself has acceded to by alcohol and abstinence from tobacco. I also found that Henry Ford apparently supported the ban, which goes against this conspiracy theory. But I 'd Gradica know what types think.
