• New tech = new opportunities for women (phones, typewriters, sewing machines)
CORPORATIONS GAIN POWER • Before IR: most businesses owned by one person or few partners, After IR businesses turned into corporations
• Corporation = business owned by shareholders (investors who buy part of a company through stocks) • There were few laws regulating corporations so monopolies grew: • Rockefeller: Standard Oil owner, bought competitors to control them • Carnegie: Controlled steel industry • Both were robber barons (used dishonest methods to grow rich) but also philanthropists (donated money to good causes) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U359tchfOPA
ECONOMIC GROWTH BRINGS WEALTH AND POVERTY • IR winners: business owners • IR losers: minorities, factory workers, many in the south

PROBLEMS OF IMMIGRATION • IR cities were not beautiful, safe places: Poverty and Diseases • People living in tenements (run-down, overcrowded apartments) and slums (neighborhood with dangerous and overcrowded housing)

INDUSTRY AND LABOR • Early industrial inventions such as the McCormick reaper and the Cyrus plow lessened the demand for farm labor which drove rural populations to urban industrial jobs. • IR inventions made farming easier so people moved to cities
EARLY FARMING ORGANIZATIONS • As farmers competed to make profits, technological advances led to overproduction. • With a high supply, prices dropped as the demand did not increase as rapidly with the increase of supply.
• Too many crops so price decreased
EARLY FARMING ORGANIZATIONS • Along with overproduction, the banking sector charged high interest rates on loans. • The railroad industry charged higher rates on short hauls as they maintained a monopoly on local markets and 17 charged different rates to different individuals • Banks and railroads began ripping off farmers because they were the only option available
EARLY FARMING ORGANIZATIONS • In the south and west, the Farmers Alliance set out to educate farmers on topics including low interest rates and government influence on railroads and banking.
• Lecturers went from town to town to promote concepts to improve the conditions of most farmers. • The Grange and Farmers Alliance both worked to promote farmers agenda and opposed bank/railroad corruption
POPULIST PARTY

• The Populist Party formed in the 1890s and focused on the plights of the farmers unlimited and working class. loan programs that coinage of would balance the silver costs of food. a graduated eight hour income workday tax Populist single terms for president
Party Platform

• Where are populist voters? • Where are people moving for IR jobs? • Populists failed to secure enough urban votes, lost 1892 election.
BIG BUSINESS AFFECTS LABORERS • Unskilled workers flocked to the factories during the Industrial Revolution. • These unskilled workers included working class men, women, and children.
• The working class was continuously filled as new immigrants flocked to the United States for a better life. • Factory workers typically worked ten to fourteen hour days to earn that pay. • Along with low pay, factory conditions were dangerous.
