You can still find antique medicine bottles that say patent medicine.
That was like all the rage.
It's so cool.
This is patentable.
And so people were making a lot of money doing that.
Standard Oil had such a monopoly on patents.
coal, oil, feedstocks that they did.
And this isn't conspiracy.
There's like the documents and the business contracts that they worked together.
And then they put together $160 million to basically redo education.
Now, at that time, the pharmaceutical industry was really all about
minerals and herbals, like Eli.
Well, and that's such a great question because what happened was all pharmaceutical, all pharmacists were compounders.
You would go to the pharmacy, they would compound the medicine for you, and companies like Eli Lilly, another, I'm forgetting the name that's now a subsidiary of Pfizer, they would send expeditions to the West Indies, to the Middle East, to Native American tribes, and they would find medicines, historical medicines, and that was what pharmacy was.
Well, then when this whole marriage between Standard Oil and the chemical companies came together, they put together a report called the Flexner Report, where they decided, OK, we're going to put all this money into education and only the schools that abide by our rules.
patent medicine type pharmaceutical are going to get funding.
So chiropractic schools, eclectic medicine schools, midwifery degrees, they didn't get any of the funding.
And then by the time, which by the way, Flexner who did this report, he was a school teacher.
He had no medical training.
So they shut, all these schools shut down except for just a few of them.
