In America, there were many more job opportunities since many jobs back then were producing foods and selling them.]]> 2019-10-22 17:32:09 UTC https://padlet.com/gmbarnett0422/ysbu15cc53bf/wish/401022977 tcgiusti0531 https://padlet.com/gmbarnett0422/ysbu15cc53bf/wish/401029299 Push Factor- Cathy was not satisfied with her living conditions.
