Critereon- Kaila and Maille __﻿north social__- Discuss pros and cons of working life

Factory Life/ Jobs: The textile industry was changed by Francis Cabot Lowell. He created the Lowell System. This allowed young. unmarried women to get jobs. Factories imporoved some aspects of life. Now, employers were willing to hire whole families and very young children. This meant that the family would have more income, but kids wouldn't be able to recieve school, because they worked 10 hours a day. This also allowed women to support themselves independently. The cons were much more defined. The working conditions were poor. The air inside the factories were hot and no windows were allowed to be opened. Girls needed to tie their hair back, to prevent the machines from killing them. Hands were sore and bleeding from the threads. No laws were made to portect the workers, adults or children. They were simply locked in a room until the day was done.

__north political__- What can you infer about the political leaders and decisions they made based on major events during this time period.- the manufacturing improvements helped with building more efficient weapons faster for the U.S. govt. who could be facing a war with France. Eli Whitney made this and other ways to make guns better with interchangeable parts. So this must have helped them a great deal. The president(Thomas Jefferson) soon realized The U.S. was too dependent on imports. So the manufacturing business picked up. For the people who had to work in mills they were cut and bruised and bleeding. So there were strikes and unions which put on the strikes. So President Martin Van Buren finally let them have a 10hr. workday for federal workers only. Later on the Unions achieved some specific legal victories. But people were still trying to get rid of child labor. Gibbons v. Ogden was a case in the supreme court where the govt. would regulate trade which would but an end to control over waterways in 7 states. Telegraphs received and sent info. for the government, business, private citizens and newspapers.

north economic- Summarize the technology advances affects on the economy. Inventions: Some popular creations invented in this time period were:steel plow, sewing machine, safety pin, mechanical reaper, and the telegraph. These improved how people lived daily life, and sped up lengthy processes. Transportation boomed with the creation of the railroads, steam locomotives, and fuel to power these engeins. One major invention, was the machines in factories. They allowed the mass production of thread. This gave many jobs and sped up a time consuming process. Most of these inventions were made with the intentions of imrpoving life. They increased how fast we are able to get places and recieve goods, with the railroads and trains. The economy may have improved because we had more goods to sell and export. The factory machines mass produced threads and other things that usually took long to make. These advances sped up life, but at the expense of workers, jobs, and citizen's health.

south social-Discuss the Variety of Jobs among the different types of people.

The variety of people were categorized by their financial situation and their race. If you were white and wealthy, you often owned numerous acres of land and slaves to work for you. Often these types of peopel were considered political or business leaders. The wives of these men organized the famly's social events and helped raise the children. Slaves worked in the fields or as servants. They often had no rights, and were considered 'property' of the owners. There job was to obey and do what the masters wanted. The other type of people were yeomen and poor-whites. These people owned about 100 acres of land that was very poor for farming. They worked odd jobs;anything that would make them money. The south held a variety of jobs and people which

south political-What law could have improved the lives of people in the south and influenced how they lived.

The lives of slaves were very difficult. They worked from 3 am to 11 pm. The owners treated them like animals. One law that could have improved their lives was, allowing education. This would allow them to think more for themselves. Another law that should have been placed was protection against punishments which could result in fatal injury or death. This would keep them alive longer. There should also have been a law the set a certain level of food each family must recieve. If a worker has no fuel or food, they will not work as well, and that could result in punishment. The obvious law that would improve their lives, is the abolishment of slavery. This law would have changed all of our history.

south economic-What explanation do you have for their agriculture economy. They had tabacco, rice, and indigo dominate in the southern economy. The crops prices fell and the demand for and price for slave went down, farmers couldn't find another crop that until cotton. Soon cotton was the main income, it was hard work, so they up with cotton gin. This mads made cotton manufacturing faster and easier, which became the king cotton. Throughout the south to Texas was the cotton belt- area of high cotton production. Cotton started hurting the land and would soon make the land useless, so they started crop rotation. The cotton boom made the south a big player in world trade. Corn, rice, sweet potatoes, wheat, and sugarcane was other cash crops. Flax was another big cash crop. Most of the industries they had were for farmers. Industry was a small contribution to the south's economy.
