The Industrial Revolution steered humans into doing what was thought to be impossible. By the 1800s, the creation of energy resources, goods, and jobs skyrocketed worldwide. From Britain, to Germany, France, Belgium, and the United States, citizens began to urbanize their cities into more stabilized and sanitary communities. In result of creating a more salubrious environment, people throughout many countries began to live longer. While some might argue that Industrialization had primarily negative consequences for society because of child labor, it was actually a positive thing for society.

“[Document three states,] soon the production of exports outpaced import of goods…,” (Document 3). Regarding the quote above, it shows that with the money the U.S. was gaining, the quantitative amount of products that were imported were distributed at lower prices.

Thanks to child workers, some of these goods such as clothing, can be bought and worn by others or the children themselves. “Document four illustrates that if more cars are produced, the price of the cars will lower,” (Document 4). Surely, this is true because the more of something there is, the less rare it will seem. Therefore the value of it will be lowered, and the car will be sold at a lower price. Another reason why the price might be reduced is because the materials needed to build the car are exceptionally cheap. “[Due to the mass production of textiles,] your clothes are cheaper,”(Document 9). The production of textiles is greater than any other company’s production-wise. Hence the large production rate and the amount of people that use them, textiles are exceedingly inexpensive. Textiles became inexpensive during the Industrial Revolution, which allowed people to buy even more clothes than before. Although cheaper goods have improved the lives of many, the creations of new jobs are the final element that ties the Industrial Revolution
