One reason was that it changed the construction on railroads because new railroads were made so you were able to drive in any weather. Road route 66 also made in impact to automobiles because it helped make new homes that had better garages and better driveways. The automobile also constructed places where businesses could develop things like gas stations, motels, repair shops, stores, etc which could help people that own places get customers and money.

However the first ever first flight in 1918 was not planned very well which helped create radios and navigational instruments which was helpful that way people were able to communicate and know what the weather was like. Transatlantic flights were created by Charles Lindbergh and Amelia Earhart to promote cargo and commercial airline flights. This was helpful because it helped with transportation and it sometimes would be easier rather than driving an automobile.

The installment plan enabled people to buy goods and people were able to pay it later. If people did not have money, people would have to sell things and then they would have to get a installment plan for what they sold. The installment plan was a superficial prosperity because it led to fake prosperity because of the lack of wages.

Another thing is that some companies did not work well with the new transportation that was being made.

One way they could pay was that if they gave goods to the U.S or the U.S could gather reparations from the Germans. During this Harding introduced very high tariffs on U.S imports. This would help the U.S businesses keep their money and it would help them not get their money taking away from other countries. A new act was also created and it was called the Dawes act and it was created when the U.S loaned Germany to pay back money to the British and French. Harding had a cabinet which included the Ohio Gang and he was at the center of a scandal. His cabinet began to fall apart when his friends used his powers to become rich. One of his friends was caught illegally selling hospital and government supplies to private companies.
