One reason why Industrialization occured in America was all the inventions being thought of and created.
2. Social - All the immigration growth
    Economic - All the railroads being built
Political - All the monopolies and trust.]]> 2021-09-14 17:13:16 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740199662 mappiah2023 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740203108 1. Industrialization happened because of the Bessemer Process being found by Andrew Carnegie. It was a more efficient and cheaper way to produce steel. The steel was used for buildings and more.

2. An economic and social effect was the number of inventions that were created that made life easier.]]> 2021-09-14 17:14:24 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740203108 mauragranville2023 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740204342 One reason why industrialization happened in American was because of the railroads because they increased the demand for manufactured goods. one social effect that happened was more job oppertunities opened up and woman and children were able to worm and more types of people as well.]]> 2021-09-14 17:14:50 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740204342 gracebujak2024 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740212373 1. One reason why industrialization occured in America was because of the population increase from immigration, and factories becoming more popular caused more products to be made and sold. 

2. An economic effect of this was because of more people buying items and trying out the new inventions, the economy continued to rise as people purchased more things.]]> 2021-09-14 17:17:42 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740212373 Shawn Bloniasz https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740218796 1) Industrialization started in America because Carnage figured out a cheaper way to produce steel, and that made the price both go down and the production go way up! This meant that more strong and tall buildings could be made, and so that meant more jobs and more buisnesses

2) A Social/Economic effect was that more people were immigrating to the USA for work and pay]]> 2021-09-14 17:19:56 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740218796 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740220665 1. Industrialization happened because innovations and inventions provided companies with machines that could help them mass produce items such as steel.

2. A political effect was monopolys. Companies found it easier to buy out their competitors rather than competing with them.  ]]> 2021-09-14 17:20:38 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740220665 jessicamccarthy2024 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740221044 1. Industrialization happened because of new inventions like the Bessemer Process Andrew Carnegie came up with, steal was about to produced faster and cheaper. This allowed cities to began to built higher than ever before. 

2. A social effect of this was that with more room in the cities the population began to grow. ]]> 2021-09-14 17:20:45 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740221044 Industrialization https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740222385 1.  One of the reasons Industrialization happened was the invention of the Bessemer Process found by Andrew Carnegie. Steel was used for many things during the time but was not cheap. Carnegie figured out a way to produce steel at mass production. Helping the development of railroads, bridges and the construction of buildings.  ]]> 2021-09-14 17:21:14 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740222385 rhyenperry2023 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740225708 1. The reason is because there were so many immigrants that just screamed "I want to work" so plenty of workers to make your ideas real and in the hands of the consumer.

Economic/Political-Monopolies and Trusts being able to work because of laissez faire

The economy was great as an effect of this because of all the jobs it created.]]> 2021-09-14 17:22:30 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740225994 andrewboisvert2024 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740227796 1. The population increase in America from things like immigration created more jobs which allowed for wealthy business owners to be able to employ workers cheaply to mass produce their products.

2. An economic/political effect was monopolies and big trusts. These monopolies and trusts thrived, becoming very powerful. ]]> 2021-09-14 17:23:08 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740227796 Laylah Summers https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740232769 1. One reason why industrialization prospered in America was because of the population increase.  As more people came to the U.S. for work, factory working became very popular and allowed for mass production.

2. An economic/political effect would be monopolies, these big business rathered trusting and coming together with another company than competing with them.  It made these monopolist very rich.  ]]> 2021-09-14 17:24:56 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740232769 williampanepinto2024 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740243778 1. One reason industrialization occurred was because of Andrew Carnegie who brought the Bessemer Process to America. This risk paid off and he became one of the richest men in America. This promoted many more American Businessmen to try to replicate Carnegie's success.

2. A social effect of industrialization was the increase in immigrants who were looking for work. This brought a lot more diversity to America along with new ideas and views on everyday life.]]> 2021-09-14 17:28:51 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740243778 Hannah Kularski https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740257965 1. One reason why industrialization occurs in America is because of immigration and population increases. We need more jobs and employees. 

2. An economic effect was trusts and monopolies. They were very powerful. ]]> 2021-09-14 17:34:09 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740257965 Adam Skoglund https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740284364 One of the reasons why industrialization developed during the Gilded Age was because of immigration. Immigration caused the population of US cities at the time to grow which caused more job opportunities to expand industrialization across the country. These job opportunities gave big companies more workers to build their products. These new products will be completed more efficiently than the past products due to the larger groups of workers.

Social- Industrialization helped make everyday life easier with the inventions of the telegraph to communicate with others around the area. The typewriter made it easy to communicate when you are leaving or to know what to get at the store,etc. 

Political- These inventions helped make lives easier for everyone in America, not only the big businesses. Industrialization had a political effect on the lives of the American people by allowing some of these big businesses to control the government. 

Economic- Industrialization also caused an economic effect on the country by causing supplies to be transported quickly across the country by railroads. These railroads allowed more products to be available because they can get to the warehouses quicker.

2. An economic/political effect was monopolies and trusts. Monopolists were very rich and powerful. ]]> 2021-09-14 17:44:12 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1740285811 Abbi Lane https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/6j50v0gvxofkccj7/wish/1744201765 A reason why industrialization occured in America was because there were tons of immigrants coming in to America to live a better life and get better jobs which increased the population drastically.

Social- The cities were overcrowded from the new immigrants coming in, people had to set up camp in alleyways or anywhere they could find. They all had nowhere to go so they started to live a very unhealthy lifestyle in the streets. The crime rate escalated quickly and soon became a huge problem.

Economic- Skyscrapers were  invented thanks to Andrew Carnegie who helped change the expansion of the steel industry. He and a coworker came up with a way to make steel cheaper and inside the country. This allowed for tall buildings to be constructed. Now that skyscraper were built in the big cities, this allowed for more room for the incoming immigrants which increased workers.

Political-  Business men and monopolists only cared for the money and growth to the point where they couldn’t care less about their workers. They also don’t care about the conditions the workers labor through. The monopolists almost rule over their powerless and vulnerable workers just to become successful in the economy.

Goods could be produced very quickly and could be sold very cheaply. This led to factories out-competing smaller businesses and artisans and factories quickly becoming dominant in the economy. 

The second reason behind industrialization is because of how expensive these machines likely were, only the very wealthy could afford them. Due to the means of production now largely being controlled by the very wealthy, and the large amount of goods out-competing smaller businesses, people had to rely more on working at factories. These are the reasons why I think industrialization happened. 

One political effect of industrialization was because of the massive wealth gained by the bosses of these factories, the wealthy had a very strong influence on the Senate, and could affect policy and make it work for them and benefit only them at the expense of the American people.
