The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The spoils system led to government corruption and eventually government reform during the Gilded Age in that the spoils system appointed friends and supporters of the candidate during his campaign. As a "thank you gift," President Andrew Jackson introduced the spoils system and instead of appointing professional politicians and people with experience in important positions of the government, he appointed supporters.

During the Gilded Age, there was so much corruption in government because officials were not interested in serving the country and the citizens of the US, but it became rich, allowing bribery and corruption practices with wealthy businessmen.

<span>In the spoils system, elected officials appointed friends and supporter to government jobs, regardless of their qualifications. By the Gilded Age, the government was filled with dishonest, unqualified employees. This system was so appealing to politicians because it ensures a loyal group of followers. Both parties handed out jobs to pay off the people who got them elected. The system led to corruption when dishonest appointees used their jobs for personal profit.</span>

The use of __________________ parts (parts that are exactly alike) helped factories produce more goods at cheaper prices.
quester [9]

Answer:

The use of interchangeable parts (parts that are exactly alike) helped factories produce more goods at cheaper prices.

Explanation:

In the process of development of industrialization, the qualifications of workers and employees were gradually increasing. There was a need for a scientific approach for the accelerated development of industries. As a result, at the beginning of the 20th century, a related concept of industrialization appeared - Fordism. This term includes 4 components:

Separation of personnel: manager, engineers, and technicians performing low-skilled work.

The introduction of standardization in the engineering industry with the goal of interchangeability of parts and assemblies suitable for different products.

The optimal organization of workshop production, giving maximum returns.

Establishment of a conveyor at the final stage of product formation.
