I believe that the rise of industry was good for american workers.I believe it was good because they had many gains for example the hours and wages improved.The working conditions also improved.They even won recognitions for workers rights.
Even though they had many gains they also had losses.Like they shut down strikes and boycotts.Also violence and raicalism weakended unions by scaring away union members .But even though they had some loosses they had more gains.Thats why the rise of industry was good for american workers. all details in page 184&185

Yes i think the rise of the industry was good for American workers.One reason is because theworking calss included men, woman, also children. My second reason is because they typically worked 6 days a week, for 10 or more hours a day, workers earned $1 a day. My last reason is because some got better wages and opportunities.

Workers worked for so little money for so long hours.Not only was this unfair,but they also worked under bad conditions.The workers were treated like machinery.They worked 6 days a week for 10 or more hours a day.They earned $1 a day.The workers had no security in there work.
The rise of industry for Americans was a really good idea.People started getting together to protest against the bad things they had to deal at work for so little money.This made people get in big groups that became as unions.This unions helped alot and made it alot stronger.The workers went on strikes.Militias and police were all sent to stop the stikes,but it was too much from the workers that they cuoldn't deal with.The rise for workers was really great it gave them some recognitions of their rights.They also got everage work hours per week.For the unoion employess the hours fell from 54 to 49.The weakly pay rose from $17.60 to $21.30.The wages for nonunion workers also improved,but not the same.In my opion the rise for americans industry was still a great idea.I got all this information in one page,185.SURIAMY MACEDA

Was the industry good for the American workers? I believethat it was a good idea for some people but at the same time others thought diffrent. Most factory workers worked at that time, worked long hours and under harsh conditions. Everyone would espect that a hard jod would be paid at leat a good wages. Maybe it did help boost the American economy. but that didnt stop the owners to miss treat their workers.

But the good thing is that there was persons who did care of what the works went by. At that time there was a union that helped the workers to have a better jodb and with all the benifits. The workers would join the labor union to fight for a better job and to at leat to get benefits. There were some times that were some losses and gains for workers. Also that the hostility between the unions and employers to violence.
I think that the industry was not so great from my perspective. It wasent that good because it led to many negative things to other persons. Even thought they were not the ones who had to go to the obstacles. No to the industry American, many has to suffer.
Most of my answers i founded in pq 185 and pq 177.

Yes I think the rise of industry was good for American workers because for one, the working hours that the union employees had decreased from 54 to 49 hours. Another reason is that the workers could sit down with with the owners in which this made them have a little power. The last thing is that their weekly pay rose up from $17.60 to $21.30

The gain and losses help the worker receive 49 hour of work from 54 hour.at the same time they receive a wage of $21.30 from $17.60.All of this was accomplish by the Labor Unions.
