Was it Worth The Cost

The cost of industrialization was worth the overall cost. Industrialization helped the country in many ways, in which some impact us today. One of the major upsides of industrialization was job opportunities. In a picture taken by the Detroit Publishing Co. in 1890-1901 you can see all the new factories with smoke coming out of them which means they are active. This photograph is symbolic because it is symbolising all the people that are working in the factories. Therefor with many people working means they have a salary and with people that once had a bad job they now have a better opportunity and can provide for their family and keep a stable paycheck. Another grand fact of industrialization was growth for businesses. For example Levi’s jeans success today would have been way smaller if it didn’t succeed in the early 1900’s, another example is according to an ad from the Harper’s Weekly 1899 it shows how industrialization is kicking off the typewriter and how it is doing os well and if it hadn’t done so well at that time it might not have the innovative typing tools we have today. Industrialization was a great time period that had many good things about it and when people ask me Was It Worth The Cost, i respond with yes.
