2) A economical effect is that since there were so many people willing to work they became very replaceable, this caused the workers to not get paid well and for the owners of businesses to become very rich and everyone else poor. ]]> 2021-09-15 11:41:11 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/vzjxaywi2nkkj319/wish/1742438222 Nicole B. nicoleblaisbennett2023 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/vzjxaywi2nkkj319/wish/1742438629 1) The transportation of products were flawed. The railroad system, the most efficient system at the time, only expanded west when the Civil War was occuring. Despite the debt the Americans had cost on themselves after said war, they needed to expand the railroad system eastward for economic needs.

2) Economic - To expand its reach, it would need steel tracks. After Carnegie's innovation of steel mass-production, the tracks widened its reach across the country, helping to transport goods and people effectively.]]> 2021-09-15 11:41:25 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/vzjxaywi2nkkj319/wish/1742438629 seanle2023 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/vzjxaywi2nkkj319/wish/1742446470 1. A reason why industrialization occurs in America is because of inventions and innovations like the light bulb which allowed things to be done at night, or inventions like vulcanized rubber and the car.

A social effect of industrialization is more immigrants were coming to the U.S. which meant that the population in major cities like New York City, Chicago, and Philadelphia would rise drastically.]]> 2021-09-15 11:45:40 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/vzjxaywi2nkkj319/wish/1742446470 Follow Up samanthaluby2024 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/vzjxaywi2nkkj319/wish/1742447884 1. Industrialization occured in america because of the hard working immigrants that came over in the late 1800s. With many job opportunities opening up, many people wanted to move to america to "start over."

2.Thousands of hard workers moved over making many apartments crowded with multiple people living in them all at once. Many inventors were put into political power because of their success in the work industry making them rich. One last thing is how workplaces had to change their environments because of either not safe working conditions/not paying enough.]]> 2021-09-15 11:46:16 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/vzjxaywi2nkkj319/wish/1742447884 Follow up https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/vzjxaywi2nkkj319/wish/1742453355 1.)There were many reasons why industrialization developed during the Gilded Age.

When Andrew Carnegie found out that you can make iron into steel cheaply, he knew he would make tons of money, and he was right. This benefited America so much because now they could buy steel cheaply and start to make skyscrapers and other beneficial things.
2.)People were a big problem for the US, cities were 4x in size and they were running out of room. Cities just started to build tenements, which were small houses with many small rooms that held multiple families. This did not last though as it was cruel to people and they ripped them down for better and more sanitary conditions.

People could travel to increase the companies, making the industry and the country’s economy increase, demanding the manufacture work.
The political effect of the gilded age were the monopolies, it was a way for big companies to get bigger and bigger by buying small businesses that could be a competitor for them one day. These companies would bribe the government, trying to get what they wanted
Economic was the transcontinental Railroad and the expansion of the steel industry, it made it possible to build more things and for a lower price. It helped the population to grow, and put the country at a higher level compared to others.
The social effect was the immigrants' arrival and the population shifts. After the statue of liberty build, more and more immigrants come to the USA every year, it helps the economy, because they work in jobs that natives do not want to work on, and the population were grow in a higher level compared to other years.

Industrialization developed during the Gilded age due to the introduction of the Bessemer Process to create Steel much cheaper and more efficiently, this was done by Andrew Carnegie, the head of Carnegie Steel Company. This caused people to be able to build modern industrial buildings and machines much cheaper than before, this was the reason that cities began to be filled with these modern factories and buildings.
