    The correct answer is John D. Rockefeller.

    Explanation:

    John D. Rockefeller was the very first billionaire in the United States. In 1870 he founded the Standard Oil Company which, at its peak, allowed him to control up to 90% of the country's oil. Through innovations, he was able to reduce the cost of oil production. When his company was dismembered, so to speak, into over 30 companies due to a Supreme Court ruling, his wealth only increased. Some of those companies still detain the highest revenue in the world.
