Feedback- Feelings on the IR- August 25-29

The good and bad of the IR--


Good-
  • People created machines that help us even today,
  • the IR got us to where we are today (technologically speaking..)
  • There were more choices of jobs for people to choose from
  • Machines could produce products that were almost identical to one another and then parts could be replaced

Bad-
  • factory owners overworked their workers for only a small amount of money.
  • The fact that people had to suffer (and even die) to make us clothes, cotton, and new machines
  • People lost their jobs because the machines were doing the work for them
