One example could be Oliver Evans, who developed the high-pressure steam engine in 1804. His steam engine was capable of powering ships, sawmills, printing presses, and textile factories. His steam engine allowed people to complete tasks more efficiently and therefore gain more profits for the user.]]> 2022-02-15 19:49:40 UTC https://padlet.com/skohli2026/60u0gabz25rsszwy/wish/2049431413 skohli2026 https://padlet.com/skohli2026/60u0gabz25rsszwy/wish/2049514829 With the rise of Industrialism, serious labor demands were put in place. These demands were satisfied by millions of immigrants from Ireland, Germany, and elsewhere. But from this, severe effects came into place, different parties, old and new, took strong positions on their ideologies for the rights of the immigrants. Eventually, these positions hardened leading to major political changes within America.  ]]> 2022-02-15 20:37:30 UTC https://padlet.com/skohli2026/60u0gabz25rsszwy/wish/2049514829 skohli2026 https://padlet.com/skohli2026/60u0gabz25rsszwy/wish/2049516203 Eli Whitney had come up with the idea of creating guns with interchangeable parts, this concept made it easier to repair, redevelop, and replace each gun.

It was truly created due to the surge of demands from Europe and its expanded market. In fact, a greater reason this invention was important was due to its simplicity, it could be, powered by man, animal, or even water! The device in the end, “pulled the cotton through a set of wire teeth mounted on a revolving cylinder, the fiber passing through narrow slots in an iron breastwork too small to permit passage of the seed.”

Business owners could create the most harsh conditions for workers and use the most environmentally dangerous machines without government regulations. This led to greedy and poor working conditions for laborers and harsh environmental problems caused due to the large amount of inefficient machines that were developed at the time. ]]> 2022-02-16 01:30:20 UTC https://padlet.com/skohli2026/60u0gabz25rsszwy/wish/2049866653 skohli2026 https://padlet.com/skohli2026/60u0gabz25rsszwy/wish/2051439974 https://docs.google.com/document/d/1G1BO8dT3Uv-kg7fle-GwltmkFD9vxSHc5JINNHRbudc/edit]]> 2022-02-16 17:33:40 UTC https://padlet.com/skohli2026/60u0gabz25rsszwy/wish/2051439974 skohli2026 https://padlet.com/skohli2026/60u0gabz25rsszwy/wish/2051710984 Industrialists are people who gain wealth from the ownership of industrial business and favor government policies that support the industry.]]> 2022-02-16 19:29:43 UTC https://padlet.com/skohli2026/60u0gabz25rsszwy/wish/2051710984 skohli2026 https://padlet.com/skohli2026/60u0gabz25rsszwy/wish/2051712373 The Industrial Revolution refers to a sudden change in our economy and culture brought by the use of machines to do work that was previously done by hand.]]> 2022-02-16 19:30:20 UTC https://padlet.com/skohli2026/60u0gabz25rsszwy/wish/2051712373 skohli2026 https://padlet.com/skohli2026/60u0gabz25rsszwy/wish/2051714524 Textile factories develop usable products from fibers such as yarn, fabric, etc. Some products would include sheets, towels, and clothing.]]> 2022-02-16 19:31:01 UTC https://padlet.com/skohli2026/60u0gabz25rsszwy/wish/2051714524 skohli2026 https://padlet.com/skohli2026/60u0gabz25rsszwy/wish/2051717516 Limited Liability represents a point when investors are only financially responsible for the corporation’s debt to the value of their investment. ]]> 2022-02-16 19:31:57 UTC https://padlet.com/skohli2026/60u0gabz25rsszwy/wish/2051717516
