The Industrial Revolution On Today's Society
The industrial revolution has made a major impact on our lifestyle. It impacted todays voting rights, job regulations, and sanitation regulations. Products in today’s society are inexpensive due to the successes of the industrial revolution. Before the 17th century, products were expensive because nothing was mass-produced. Now in modern time, mass production made items affordable and a better lifestyle. The social issues mainly consisted poor living conditions and sanitation. The tenements they lived in were the most common places to live in the cities. The rooms were very small with only 2 beds, 1 sink, and 1 stove. Yet two families would be living in these rooms. The sanitation was so bad in these buildings that diseases were very common.
