The Industrial Revolution inspired a more manufacturing based economy. Rather than focusing their time solely out in the fields, people began to move into cities to work in factories. It also greatly changed their labor system. There were more job opportunities for women, as their smaller hands were better at working in places such as textile factories. Until child labor laws were passed, many children were also hired for jobs better fit for smaller people. Economic ideologies such as capitalism and socialism really developed as well as countries began to see a major shift in the wealth and how they obtained their wealth and realized they had to change the structure of their economy too.

wich was not a reason johnson used when vetoing the extension of the freedmens bureau and civil rights bill of 1866

Mkey [24]

He vetoed it for various reasons. For starters, he believed that it was a thing up to individual states and that it infringed on the states right to choose. Another reason was that he believed that such beneficial extension would not make people equal, but rather it would be racist towards the white people. His main argument, however, was that the bill would have a certain group gain rights that they are not entitled to, while a large part of the states does not even have representation in the congress, and that the congress needs to be enlarged first.
