Political Cartoon

Main Visual Elements are a fat man with a capitalism banner, a little man and money falling out of the little man's pockets. Capitalism steals money from the working people. The cartoonists opinion is when the government uses capitalism they are taking money away from the laborers. The way the fat man is shaking the money out of the little man shows how the author feels. Putting a grim smile on the fat mans face might have been more persuasive.

Industrial Revolution

What is the “net effect” of the Industrial Revolution?

Pros:
1) The revolution in textiles such as the spinning jenny, the water mule and the sewing machines resulted in faster production, better trade, slave plantation and fashion started.
2) It changed the way people lived, instead of there being lords and kings, we now have proper governments and presidents.
3) We would not have entertainment and machinery, people would have very little education.
4) The transportation now is cars and bikes, before the industrial revolution we would be riding horses and wagons.

Cons:
1) Pollution has increased rapidly over the past century.
2) Assembly lines and sweatshops are still being used till today.
3)The revolution in coal, mines and scheduled work resulted in the making of more machines, more pollution, it did bring in more money but caused women and children to work long hours.
4)In factories, the quality of production grew less because the items were being made from machines and not home made.
