lina2011 [118]4 years ago
5 0

The steamboat changed the way of living of people and greatly affected the Industrial Revolution. It became the main mode for the transportation of goods and products in the 1800s. The efficiency of doing so would have been impossible without the steamboat. It increased the capabilities of commercial trading thus, leading to the creation of new towns and the stimulation of the economy. Steamboats increased the dependency to manufactured products because the speed of transportation became faster than the standard speed. Steamboats played a vital role in the supply and demand chain.

Hope this helps.

Here is some information that you can use to help your write this essay:

Communism/Socialism:
Advantage
- There are no social classes- This means that there are no poor individuals within a society. There is no upper, lower, or middle class. Everyone has about the same amount of income/resources.

Disadvantage:
- Little economic freedom- The government plans the economy. This means they control how many products a business makes and how many goods/resources each family has.

Capitalism
Advantage:
- Individual freedom- In a capitalist society, citizens can buy whatever they want as long as they have the money. This allows citizens to do what they want, when  they want, without having the government telling them what to do.

Disadvantage:
- Poverty/Homelessness- This system involves very little government interference with the economy. This means there will be social classes. Ultimately, some individuals will end up poor or homeless for any number of reasons.

He was an important figure in the pro-segregation movement and was an important person who showed resistance. 

Governor Lester Maddox

Lester Maddox was a white restaurant owner who lived in Georgia. He violated the newly formed civil rights act by refusing to serve three black customers in his restaurant, therefore he was also very big in the pro-segregation argument.
