The Price Was Not Right


I do not believe that there are good benefits of new technologies from industrialization with how much money it cost. First, in a Typewriter Advertisement (1899) it states, “The sale of the Remington was $25 per cent, greater than in any previous year in its history.” It shows that because of the cost of industrialization all the prices went up and because the typewriters are a lot of money, there won't be as many in the world. This shows how much money kids had to suffer in factories just for their parents to buy these expensive typewriters. Furthermore, according to an Advertisement about Making Human Junk in 1912 it talks about, how before industrialization kids were happy but then industrialization came and there were low wages and the kids had no future so the kids turned into human “junk”. This is very sad because it is taking the kids of our future and putting them in factories to work and consequently the kids turn into human “junk”. As a matter of fact in a picture from detroit publishing (1890-1901) about Factory Smokestacks it shows, all these factories that are polluting the environment. All these factories our very bad for the environment. They are bad because they our polluting and all this pollution can injure kids, animals and plants because all this disgusting pollution. Industrialization might be a step up in technology but it is making kids suffer by working in factories to get money for their parents to buy typewriters and also all the pollution is injuring all these living things. In my opinion industrialization was not worth the cost.
