The germans, created a westward influx as they were proficient enough to create a westward movement. The Americans could get more tools, supplies, and money from the market revolution making it easier to make a life for themselves out in the West.]]> 2016-11-20 20:28:04 UTC https://padlet.com/bentrafton/qigwdbogw0fb/wish/138960568 How did entrepreneurs help create a market revolution in production and commerce, in which market relationships between producers and consumers came to prevail as the manufacture of goods became more organized? bentrafton https://padlet.com/bentrafton/qigwdbogw0fb/wish/138964088  Entrepreneurs created inventions such as the steel plow, mechanical reaper, cotton gin, interchangeable part, the telegraph,and the steamboat. These along with the work of Samuel Slater and the Lowell system created more efficient production and better relationships between producers and consumers.

These inventions that came with these methods led to the tools needed to make these methods possible and as fast as they were.]]> 2016-11-20 21:30:14 UTC https://padlet.com/bentrafton/qigwdbogw0fb/wish/138965547 How did legislation and judicial systems support the development of roads, canals, and railroads, which extended and enlarged markets and helped foster regional interdependence? bentrafton https://padlet.com/bentrafton/qigwdbogw0fb/wish/138966408 The markets were enlarged and extended by railroads, canals, and roads such as the National Road, the turnpike, and the Erie Canal, which were supported by the state government system even if not federally supported fully in the case of two of them. These made a regional interdependence more between the North and Midwest as they connected more together than with the South.]]> 2016-11-20 21:43:25 UTC https://padlet.com/bentrafton/qigwdbogw0fb/wish/138966408 How did transportation networks link the North and Midwest more closely than either was linked to the South? bentrafton https://padlet.com/bentrafton/qigwdbogw0fb/wish/138967847 The major canals and railroads radiated out of the North which made it connect inevitably with the West, and this led too the increasing conjoining and connectivity between the West and North. There were a few connections between the west and north with the south, but not nearly enough as the economy just wasn't as related.]]> 2016-11-20 22:08:19 UTC https://padlet.com/bentrafton/qigwdbogw0fb/wish/138967847 How did the changes, caused by the market revolution, have on US society, workers’ lives, and gender and family relations? bentrafton https://padlet.com/bentrafton/qigwdbogw0fb/wish/138970166 Increasing men and women linked their economic fate to the new market economy, and the home also became more of a safe haven than a working area. This also led to the more domestic, special and separate, sphere for women. Negatively though, the gap between the rich and the poor continued to increase even faster. Overall there was an increased standard of living.]]> 2016-11-20 22:44:47 UTC https://padlet.com/bentrafton/qigwdbogw0fb/wish/138970166 How did the growth of manufacturing drive a significant increase in prosperity and standards of living for some? bentrafton https://padlet.com/bentrafton/qigwdbogw0fb/wish/138973668 It led to a greater value of living as the home became less of a working environment. The replacement of previously handmade items now bought now led to an changes status in a more independent fashion for women that worked at the house.]]> 2016-11-20 23:38:47 UTC https://padlet.com/bentrafton/qigwdbogw0fb/wish/138973668 In this chapter, the authors maintain that “clearly the early factory system did not shower its benefits evenly on all.” What relevant historical evidence can you find in this chapter or the previous ones that supports, modifies, or refutes this assertion? bentrafton https://padlet.com/bentrafton/qigwdbogw0fb/wish/138973950 The development of an increasing wage gap was one way this didn't benefit the poor. Also, the newfound friendliness between he north and the west as transportation supported did not help the south in their economic opportunities either.]]> 2016-11-20 23:44:04 UTC https://padlet.com/bentrafton/qigwdbogw0fb/wish/138973950
