An interesting thing I learned about the industrial revolution is that the U.S was a good fit for the industrialization. We are a good fit because we have an abundance of national resources and we had a great spirit of invention. Another reason we are a good fit because we had a growing population/labor force. The last reason is our government was laissez faire ("hands off").

A monopoly is when a company or individual has total control over an entire industry. The great economic power that monopolies hold has also had positive consequences for the United States. The benefits of having a monopoly like Standard Oil in the country was only realized after it had built a nationwide infrastructure that no longer depended on trains. The last great American monopolies were created a century apart, and one lasted over a century.

Another cause is the industrial pollution. And the last cause is terrible sanitation.
